Sunday's Division I women's soccer schedule will feature 32 teams in action from CS360's top-50 of the Composite National Rankings (CNR) – but there will be only 19 games involving those teams, because there are 13 "big games" on tap that will feature matchups between CS360 top-50 teams.

Four of the top games will see two CNR top-20 teams face off: #9 Wake Forest at #6 Boston College ... #5 North Carolina at #10 Maryland .. #4 Florida State at #17 Virginia Tech ... and #2 Portland at #20 Santa Clara. Here's a look at the 13 noteworthy showdowns on Nov. 1, with many of these games potentially having big ramifications on NCAA Tournament qualification (rank refers to the CNR):

** = BIG EAST Quarterfinal (WVU @RU...VILL @MARQ...G'town @StJohn's)

The six other top-50 teams that will be in action on Sunday include a BIG EAST quarterfinal between #7 Notre Dame (National Division #1 seed) playing at home vs. South Florida (American Div. #4 seed) at 1 ET, plus the following five games:

This update includes Thursday and Friday's games (Oct. 29-30), involving most of the teams on the below list. Stanford – which has won all 18 of its games this season – beat Arizona State on Friday (3-1), joining North Carolina, Notre Dame, UCLA and Portland as teams that have compiled 70-plus wins over the past four seasons (70-11-8; .832). The USC senior class remains one shy of 60 career victories for its seniors class (there are 14 current senior classes with 60-plus career wins).

(Note that a CS360 tribute to the UNC seniors – including video interview clips – is in the works and will be posted on the site soon.)

Five of the teams on this list will be in action on Haloween day: William & Mary at Old Dominion (1 ET), Navy at American (1 ET), Wyoming at BYU (1 MT), and North Texas at Denver (12 MT).

Stanford entered the season seventh on the below list with 52 wins from 2006-08 (one win behind Florida State and Texas A&M) – but the Cardinal has gained separation from both those teams, as FSU now has 66 wins from '06-'09 while A&M has 65. It's possible that Stanford could finish the season fourth on this list, a spot currently occupied by Portland's seniors (who are 71-11-3 in their career and entered the season with three more career wins than Stanford's seniors).

The Cardinal also own an impressive record of 40-2-1 (.942) spanning the past two seasons, tops in the nation for that two-year period (Stanford reached the NCAA semifinals in 2008). Other curent two-year records of note (2008-09) include: Notre Dame (40-4-1), North Carolina (38-4-3), UCLA (37-3-3) and Portland (36-3-0).

Stanford's senior class includes six players, led by three starters – forward Kelley O'Hara (Fayetteville, Ga.), outside back Ali Riley (Pacific Palisades, Calif.) and central defender Alicia Jenkins (Diamond Springs, Calif.) – along with midfielder Kristin Stannard (Midlothian, Va.), fifth-year  senior M/F Hillary Heath (Seattle, Wash.) and defender Katie Riley (Manteca, Calif.), who has two years of eligibility remaining after the '09 season.

Kelley O'Hara

O'Hara is a leading candidate for 2009 national player-of-the-year honors, after racking up 19 goals and 8 assists (46 points) this season. Much of O'Hara's offensive production has come in clutch situations – as she is a five-time selection to CS360's Primetime Performers of the Week (including each of the past four weeks). O'Hara has either scored (7) or assisted (3) on 10 of Stanford's 18 gamewinning goals this season, with her career stats including 50 goals, 27 assists (127 pts) and 19 GWGs in 79 games played (73 starts).

Ali Riley – a member of the New Zealand National Team and an all-Pac-10 selection in 2007 – is considered one of the nation's elite outside backs. She has started all 18 games this season (1G-1A), with her career stats now including 7G-10A in 59 games played (56 GS). 

Riley and Jenkins (18 GS; career: 1G-1A, 87 GP/74 GS) have combined to anchor Stanford's 2009 back line that has limited its opponents to 11 goals this season (0.61 GAA). The tough Cardinal defense also has allowed only 124 shots (6.9 per game), 42 shots on goal (2.3/gm) and 29 corner kicks (1.6) all season.

Stannard – a part-time starter in each of the past three seasons – has been one of the Cardinal's top reserve midfielders this season (14 GP) and registered a hat trick in the early-season win over Virginia Tech (which has emerged as one of the top teams in the ACC). She has totaled 38 career points in her Stanford career (16G-6A) while appearing in 81 games (35 starts).

Hillary Heath

The fifth-year player Heath also has been a valuable reserve offensive player this season, appearing in all 18 games with a pair of starts (1A). Heath missed the 2007 season due to injury but has appeared in 75 games during her four healthy seasons (5G-11A; 28 GS).

Katie Riley

Katie Riley – who also missed the '07 season due to injury – has played in eight games this season and 28 in her career, including 12 starts as a freshman in 2006.

Here's the complete updated list of the nation's winningest senior classes (note: when referencing this list, please credit CollegeSoccer360.com with the research and – if possible – provide a link to this blog post ... click on post headline for direct URL). 

Current Four-Year Records in D-I Women's Soccer (top senior classes; '06-'09)
(research compiled by CollegeSoccer360.com)

84-10-4  (.878) ... Notre Dame  (25-1-1 ... 19-5-2 ... 26-1-0 ... 14-3-1)
78-9-5  (.875) ... UCLA  (21-4-0 ... 20-2-2 ... 22-1-2 ... 15-2-1)

70-11-8  (.832) ... Stanford  (15-6-2 ... 15-3-5 ... 22-2-1 ... 18-0-0)

This update includes Saturday's and Sunday's games (Oct. 24-25), involving nearly all teams listed below. Following North Carolina's loss at Miami (1-0) and Notre Dame's 2-0 win over Georgetown, the Irish seniors now own the most career wins in the nation (84-10-4, one ahead of UNC's 83-9-4). During the month of October, Notre Dame has gone 7-0-1 while the Tar Heels have slipped back with a 3-3-0 mark this month. The UNC seniors still maintain a higher career win pct. (.885, to ND's .878), as the Tar Heels have one more win, one more loss and the same number of ties as the Irish over the past four seasons ('06-'09).

Stanford – which has won all 17 of its games this season – is rapidly approaching the 70-win milestone for its senior class (69-11-8), while the Oklahoma State senior class picked up its 60th career victory on Sunday (1-0 vs. Baylor). USC now sits one shy of its 60th win spanning the past four seasons.

Notre Dame's seven seniors – several of whom have battled through various injuries in their careers – include five who have been regular members of the starting lineup over the past few years: forward Michele Weissenhofer, midfielder Courtney Rosen, M/D Amanda Clark, defender Haley Ford and goalkeeper Kelsey Lysander.

The Notre Dame and UNC seniors both have the chance to eclipse 90 career wins, a feat achieved only 18 times previously in the history of Division I women's soccer. During the current decade, there have been nine seniors classes that compiled more than 90 career wins: the UNC seniors in 2006 (97-7-3), 2000 (97-6-1), 2001 (94-7-0), 2008 (94-7-4), 2003 (93-6-4), 2004 (92-4-6) and 2005 (91-4-7) – all but '02 and '07 – plus ND's senior classes in 2006 (92-8-3) and '08 (92-10-3).

The 18 all-time senior classes with more than 90 career wins include 15 from UNC (1992-2001, '03-'06, '08) and three from Notre Dame ('97, '06, '08). The winningest senior class in D-I women's soccer history (.967/102-3-1) played for UNC from 1995-98.

For a complete list of the 18 winningest senior classes, see the Historical Archive tab and scroll down (research courtesy of CollegeSoccer360).

Notre Dame's current senior class includes (from left) forward Michele Weissenhofer, defender Rachel VanderGenugten, goalkeeper Kelsey Lysander, midfielders Micaela Alvarez and Courtney Rosen, defender Haley Ford and D/M Amanda Clark.

There were 36 games on Sunday involving teams in the top-50 of the CollegeSoccer360.com Composite National Rankings, and one-third of those games saw the unranked/lower-ranked team register the upset win/tie. Those 12 games included three top-10 teams (UNC, Wake Forest and South Carolina) that were upset/tied, along with four other teams ranked in the CNR top-25 (Va-Tech, Rutgers, Georgia and TX A&M) that failed to win as the higher-ranked team.

Miami senior midfielder Beverly Goebel (Moreno Valley, Calif.) scored the 81st-minute goal that beat #2 UNC (1-0).

Kudos go out to Miami, Virginia, LSU, Duke, Louisville, Auburn, Texas Tech, Vanderbilt, Pittsburgh, Michigan State, Texas and Michigan for their upset wins/ties, with several of those teams needing a positive result today to help their postseason causes. Vanderbilt (1-0, vs. Ol'-Miss) and Pittsburgh (1-0, vs. UConn) both posted their upset wins on the opponent's field, while Virginia picked up its key tie on the road.

Here are the 12 upsets on Sunday that involved CNR top-50 teams:

• at Miami 1,  #2 North Carolina 0
• #38 Virginia 0,  at #8 Wake Forest 0
• at #17 LSU 1,  #9 South Carolina 0
• at #50 Duke 4,  #13 Virginia Tech 1
• at Louisville 1,  #15 Rutgers 1
• at Auburn 2,  #18 Georgia 0
• at Texas Tech 0,  #21 Texas A&M 0
• Vanderbilt 1,  at #22 Mississippi 0
• Pittsburgh 1,  at #34 Connecticut 0  (OT)
• at #44 Michigan State 2,  #37 Minnesota 1
• at Texas 1,  #43 Colorado 0
• at Michigan 0,  #49 Wisconsin 0

This update includes Thursday's and Friday's games (Oct. 22-23), involving most of the teams listed below. Following North Carolina's loss at Florida State (2-3/OT) and Notre Dame's 2-0 win over Villanova, those teams now are tied for having the most wins over the past four seasons (both teams have 83 wins and four ties from 2006-09, with ND having two more losses, 10 to 8).

Portland's seniors picked up the 70th win of their career (70-11-3), doing so in impressive fashion with a 5-1 victory over potential WCC upstart St. Mary's. UNC, ND and UCLA (76-9-5) are the only other current senior classes with 70-plus career wins. Stanford – which has won all 16 of its games this season – is rapidly approaching the 70-win milestone for its senior class (68-11-8), while the USC and Oklahoma State senior classes now are one win shy of their 60th career victory.

Portland senior Michelle Enyeart (above) has played in most of Portland's 70 wins spanning the past four seasons (2006-09), while totaling 40 career goals, 30 assists and 17 gamewinning goals in 73 career games played with the Pilots (56 starts).

College Soccer 360 is on hand for today's game between Miami at Wake Forest, with the Demon Deacons just taking a quick 2-0 lead early in the second half on goals by Bess Harrington and Jackie Logue. WFU nearly jumped ahead 3-0, but Vikki Alonso dove to her right and saved Bianca D'Agostino's low penalty-kick shot. Score remains 2-0, with 29 minutes left to play.

Miami's Jordan Roseboro just had a strong scoring chance as she broke into the top of the box. Amanda Barasha charged off her line and Roseboro switched the ball to her left foot, but her low shot from 16 yards out skipped wide of the left post. ... It easily could be 6-0 right now, as Wake has missed three tap-in chances over the past few minutes (plus the PK).

... And Alonso just came up with a PK save of her own, diving right to stop a rising shot from Roseboro (21 min. left).

This update includes Sunday's games (Oct. 11), involving many of the team's listed below. Notre Dame's win at Seton Hall (2-0) gives the Irish seniors 80 wins in their  their four-year career and ND now is only one win behind UNC for the most wins over the past four seasons. Two other senior classes – from Florida (4-0 vs. Auburn) and Denver (4-0 vs. South Alabama) – posted their 60th career win, a mark reached by only seven other current senior classes (see list below).

The seniors from Furman reached a similar milestone on Sunday, with their 50th career win (James Madison remains are one win shy of the 50-win plateau for the past four seasons).

This update includes Friday's and Saturday's games (Oct. 9-10), involving many of the team's listed below. Notre Dame's won at Rutgers (1-0) leaves the Irish seniors one win shy of 80 for their four-year career (if ND wins at Seton Hall, it would leave the Irish only one win behind idle UNC for the most wins over the past four seasons). Navy's win over rival Army – in front of a school-record 2,627 fans at Navy's newly remodeled soccer facility – gave the Middies their 60th win over the past four seasons, a mark reached by only six other current senior classes (see list below).

BYU won 1-0 at UNLV on Saturday (leaving the Cougars seniors one win shy of 60 for their career, along with Florida and Denver). Furman and James Madison similarly are one win shy of the 50-win plateau for the past four seasons.
