KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The University of Montevallo men's soccer team has dropped four spots in the United Soccer Coaches Top-25 National Poll to No. 14 and one spot in the South Region rankings, Tuesday, to No. 3.
 
The Falcons climbed to No. 10 in last week's national poll but drop in this week's following the squads' first loss of the year, 2-1, at West Florida. The loss also moved the Falcons down one spot in the region to No. 3. Tampa moved up to No. 2.

In the fifth regional rankings of the season, the Falcons remain the highest ranked GSC team ahead of West Florida (7), Lee (8), Christian Brothers (9) and AUM (RV).

For the second consecutive week, Montevallo is the only nationally-ranked team from the Gulf South Conference.

The Falcons still sit atop the GSC Conference Standings, despite the loss, with a 5-1 overall record on the year and 15 total points, while West Florida is just one point behind with 14 and a 4-0-2 GSC record.
 
With a 6-1-3-mark on the year, Montevallo continues conference play on Friday Oct. 7 at home against UAH at 7:30 p.m. at Varsity Field.
