There are two No. 1-ranked teams on West Virginia’s campus. One is the women’s soccer team, both again and for the first time. The Kicking Nikkis were atop the TopDrawerSoccer.com poll last month, which was the first time they’d ever been No. 1. Later in the day, Soccer America released its poll with WVU in the lead. But this week, the National Soccer Coaches Association of America put the Mountaineers on top for the first time ever. So now, if you’re keeping score or making sense of things, the media and the coaches have both and at different times said WVU is the best team in the country.

The real significance this week is all three polls list WVU as No. 1, meaning this is the consensus No. 1 team in the country.

You already knew the identity of the other No. 1 team, never mind the photo up top here. There ought to be a press release when Jon Hammond’s gang isn’t No. 1.

And yet, is there a sport understood, heck, appreciated less than rifle? It’s fun and easy to celebrate all the national titles and the now-habitual success present and former shooters have internationally. But it’s really not a spectator sport. The competitions themselves are more mental than physical. The scoring and the competition isn’t easy to grasp. This is not football or basketball or even cross country.

In short, there’s a lot that happens and basically just as much that we oftentimes fail to properly capture and process. What do you say we fix that?
