The Wright State men's soccer team appears in the first Top Drawer Soccer Tournament 48 rankings of the season, which were released on Monday.

The rankings are a running attempt by the site to project the postseason college soccer tournament qualifiers, including every automatic conference berth.

The Raiders, who are ranked #45 this week, have or will face five other ranked teams this season.  Both of WSU's exhibition opponents last week are ranked as Akron is #4 while Marquette is #33.  Three regular-season foes also appear as Coastal Carolina is #19, Virginia #23 and Xavier #35.

Wright State opens the regular season with four straight away from home, starting with Marshall on Friday, August 24, at 7:00.  The home opener for the Raiders will be on Saturday, September 8, against Robert Morris, also at 7:00.
