[dropcap size=small]E[/dropcap]very year, Our Game Magazine puts together an annual College Issue, which features our Top 25 teams in the country. The issue also features interviews with coaches and current players, as well as articles written by former college players. Below is OGM‘s Preseason Top 25 list. UCLA, coming off its first national title in women’s soccer, tops the list heading into the 2014 season. UCLA’s 2013 tournament run was impressive but the Bruins will have their work cut out for them on their quest to repeat as national champions, as Virginia, Florida State, North Carolina — to name a few — return strong squads seeking to return to the College Cup.
