Even though every sport differs greatly from the next, there is one common bond that ties them all together: rankings.
For almost every college sport, whether it is football, basketball, track, varsity or club, rankings matter.

The same can be said for the Colorado club lacrosse team. It is currently ranked No. 16 out of nearly 200 teams in the latest Men’s Collegiate Lacrosse Association poll, which was released April 9. The Buffs dropped from No. 12 in the previous poll, and they were ranked within the top 10 earlier this season.
While the Buffs may have achieved Top 10 glory a few weeks back, it is actually the current ranking that will matter more to the team. With one game left in the regular season, the Buffs’ standing has become a crucial aspect of their chances of advancing past the regular season.
