Division II soccer likely won’t return in earnest until the Fall 2021 semester, though Franklin Pierce is making the most of this in-between phase.

The Ravens have 30-plus players on campus in Rindge, N.H., continuing to build off an Elite Eight trip during the 2019 campaign that occurred during head coach Ruben Resendes’ (Fall River, Mass.) first year at the helm.

Franklin Pierce was recently ranked fourth in the United Soccer Coaches national poll, despite the Northeast-10 Conference announcing in mid-January that fall sports teams wouldn’t compete this spring.
