The USA South Athletic Conference's women's soccer coaches have released their Spring 2021 preseason polls. Each divisional preseason poll only includes votes from coaches within that particular division-only. Head coaches do not vote for their own teams in the balloting.
Due to complications stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 women's soccer seasons were postponed until the spring semester. Despite the delay to the start of the season, the USA South is prepared to offer regular season and championship experiences for its student-athletes despite the NCAA's cancelation of the national Division III tournament. An adjustment to this season's competition is that USA South women's soccer teams will be competing in Conference-sponsored regular season and tournament action against teams within their division only.
The Lady Bishops were chosen to finish in a tie for 4th in the East Division with Meredith College with 27 points. Wesleyan upended Meredith in the postseason last year. The Bishops kick off their season on the road February 13. Their home opener will be Sunday, Feb. 21 at 2 PM vs. Greensboro.
The Spring 2021 USA South Women's Soccer postseason will consist of an East Division and West Division Tournament. The top-four seeded teams from each division will advance to the respective tournaments. The winners of those events will be crowned Divisional Conference Champions. There will be no overall USA South Champion this season.
