ROCHESTER, NY -- The RIT women's soccer team is ranked No. 23 in this week's National Soccer Coaches Association Division III poll. It is the first time the Tigers have been ranked nationally in the program's 32-year history. RIT opened the 2013 season by winning two games last weekend in dramatic fashion, beating Allegheny and Otterbein both by 1-0 scores in double overtime at the 2013 Rachel Miller Memorial Tournament. Sierra Kiss (Sauquoit, NY/Sauquoit) and Shelby Vakiener (Fairport, NY/Fairport) scored the game winners for the Tigers, while Amanda Murray (Denville, NJ/Morris Knolls) posted two shutout wins. RIT, 2-0-0 on the season, will face SUNY Oneonta (1 p.m.) and Hartwick College (2:30 p.m.) this Saturday and Sunday at the Mayor's Cup in Oneonta, N.Y.
