Cal State Bakersfield is No. 20 in this week's men's soccer poll, according to Soccer America.

It is the first of CSUB's new-era teams to be ranked since the program's elevation to NCAA Division I status. The wrestlng and water polo teams, which have been Division I for several seasons, had both been ranked in the top-25 in the past.

"This is a tremendous confirmation of our great start," said CSUB coach Simon Tobin, whose squad is 2-0.

CSUB began the season with a 1-0 overtime win over then-No. 7-ranked C Santa Barbara. A 3-1 win over UC Davis followed.
