It's a typo dip$hit. I meant the top 25. You are just too slow. Let me guess, you know something about any of those teams? @RiverRat you are exactly that a RAT. Crawl back into the gutter or PM me directly. This is a grown up thread for people that are actually curious or that have something to say about women's college soccer. You are more than free to make yourself look like a fool but you are pandering to the wrong crowd.
This isn't ULittles little man...

I meant in the preseason top 25. That's what I get for trying to do a report and post at the same time.

Are you still butt hurt about the high school soccer team still? Man I forgot about that post.

I think he is still upset about the post stating his DD is a poser.
Its the preseason rankings.
No big stretch to just look at how last season ended, and make it your preseason top 25.
The preseason top 25 means nothing.
Im not piling on, there's already a couple squeeky squeekers who do that. Im just letting you know how unimportant the preseason rankings actually are.

First goal for new players is to pass the fitness tests so that you don't have extra conditioning. Second goal is to make the travel team. I think most travel 23-24. Good luck to all of the college players and especially the first year college players. The next 3 weeks are going to be hell but they are the beginning of leaving a players mark!

Apparently Fleming did 56?!???

And could have done more if you see the video on their Facebook page.

Gotta be beep test, right? This can't be Man U.
ManU is 100 yd increments.
Beep is 20 yd increments.
Exactly...25 on ManU is 5000 yards. 56 on beep is 1120 yards. No comparison.

I'd argue the top 3 WCC are better than the top PAC-12. Last year Santa Clara topped Stanford, Pepperdine over cal and BYU went deep. Say what u want to say about the players on paper. It's the end result that really matters.
WCC is top heavy. PAC-12 is brutal up and down as every team gives you a good game.

Actually they are both fitness test. The Nike Sparq test (beep test) is actually a VO2 measurement test.
The Man U maybe a longer distance, but it provides greater recovery time between runs.
http://d1training.weebly.com/man-u-fitness-test.html
The Sparq test is 22 yards back and forth...so it's 44 yards total per level with only 10 secs recovery time in between. Like the Man U as the stage progresses the time alotted to make the run decreases.

You selected particular games to prove your point. The top 3 teams in the WCC is better than the top 3-4 teams in the Pac12? USC is the defending national champs.
How do they measure VO2?

It's in the link I provided. Ask me what the calculation means....I don't have a clue!
How to: Calculate VO2 max
Though the YYIR2 has been shown to be a moderately reliable predictor of VO2 max (8, 9), it is advised to use the test for what it was originally developed for – identifying an individual’s ability to repeatedly perform high-intensity aerobic work, which has proven to be a more sensitive measure of changes in performance than VO2 max. Regardless, for those who wish to use this method, the equations for calculating V02max are below:
- YYIR1 test: VO2 max (mL * kg-1 * min-1) = IR1 distance (m) × 0.0084 + 36.4
- YYIR2 test: VO2 max (mL * kg-1 * min-1) = IR2 distance (m) × 0.0136 + 45.3
