One year ago, the NCAA blindsided college athletics with unprecedented roster limits.

Thousands of student-athletes lost opportunities as coaches were put in the terrible position of cutting and/or de-committing players. Then AFTER the damage was done, the NCAA introduced the “Designated Student Athlete” designation as a way to let some athletes stay without counting against roster limits.

But many programs had already made painful decisions because coaches were told the limits were coming and tried to give athletes as much notice as possible.

Now we are about to do this AGAIN.
The NCAA is expected to approve a 5th year of eligibility next month — after most programs have already recruited their 2027 classes based on the CURRENT rules and CURRENT roster limits.

In women’s soccer, we already operate under a restrictive 28-player cap. You cannot recruit for FOUR classes for years, then suddenly force programs to fit FIVE classes onto the same roster without student-athletes paying the price.

Because when seniors stay, someone else loses a spot.

More cuts. More decommitments. More athletes caught in the middle of ever-changing rules they had nothing to do with.

College recruiting happens YEARS in advance. Families and athletes make life-changing decisions based on the rules in place at the time.

If 5th years are approved, they should all be classified as DSAs so as to not count against roster limits. Otherwise the NCAA is about to repeat the exact same disaster all over again.

@CoachMcCordLAX Elite program and coaches! No better place to play if you have the confidence to contribute and courage to build a legacy. Team first!

[Rob Higgins @RHiggins_USF]

Incredibly proud of this special group & all they accomplished in only our program’s second season, incl going undefeated in conference play en route to our 1st regular season title. The foundation could not be more strong & the future could not be more bright for @USFWLAX!🤘🏻😤📈

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

This team deserves at At Large bid to the @NCAALAX tourni this season. Our RPI speaks for itself. 2 top 25 wins. No losses to anyone who is outside the top 25.

No team has ever been denied a NCAA bid after finishing 21 or higher in the RPI! Yesterday we were #13! Some folks

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

By the Numbers:
#16 RPI
#17 @laxreference Strength of Record (a more precise metric than SOS)
#26 - the average of our top 10 opponents RPI
#31 @laxreference SOS (a more thorough SOS than others)

No team in @NCAALAX history has been denied a tourney bid with that strength!

@CoachMcCordLAX Go Bulls! See you in Nashville! We are ready for ya

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

Many said NO to USF because they didn’t KNOW what we could build, even tho we had done it before!

Those who said YES, earned a 💍 in Year 2! Faith is believing in something you may not be able to see. It requires a lot of Trust, Loyalty, Love & Effort.

This team’s got those! 🤘

Special thanks to @brianhartline & @USFFootball for your support and helping us to pack Corbett for our regular season American Conference championship lacrosse game on Saturday!

[USFWLAX Fans/Parents/Supporters @UsfwlaxFans]

Loyalty is in short supply these days! 🔥

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

100% of our returning starters & key players DID NOT hit the portal coming into this year. Bulls 💯

Loyalty. And now they get their shot.

Show up for them. Last home match of the season. It’s on the line.

See y'all in Nashville, Tenn. 😎

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

Shooting was clinical & high level. 14/25 - some teams take 25 shots a game!!

When we put a complete game together, we can beat anyone. But we need to grind & prep for ECU next!

Can I count on you all to pack Corbett next Saturday? @American_WLax title on the line! Let’s Do IT!

[Mindy McCord @CoachMcCordLAX]

Attention USF Sports fans! We have TWO home games remaining. BOTH conference games!

Our goal is to win every home game, but winning these would be historic. Come be a part of history RIGHT HERE at Corbett! Come cheer your hearts out for a team that loves USF!!

4/11 + 4/18
