INDIANAPOLIS – The UIndy women's lacrosse team is ranked second in the latest NCAA DII Midwest Region poll, released Wednesday.
 
The 2025 postseason marks the first year in which six teams from each of the four regions earn NCAA berths, with automatic-qualifying bids earned by each of the four Midwest conferences: Great Lakes Intercollegiate Conference (GLIAC), Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC), Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC), and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC). The remaining two programs in the field will be at-large selections based on several criteria.
 
Due to the new format, the top two seeds will host first and second round regional games on May 8 and 10, with the Midwest title decided on May 17 on the campus of the highest remaining seed.
 
UIndy sports one of the nation's toughest strengths of schedule, including the Midwest's best mark in the category. Additionally, the Greyhounds rank second in RPI, second in in-region winning percentage, and fourth in performance indicator (PI). UIndy currently holds a 10-5 record this spring, with wins over fellow postseason hopefuls Grand Valley, Regis, and Rockhurst. Each of the Hounds' five losses came at the hands of teams currently in the field, Maryville (Midwest), as well as four South Region programs, Flagler, Florida Southern, Lynn, and Tampa.

Per the latest IWLCA national poll, UIndy has played three of the top five teams this spring, including seven of the top 25.
 
The Greyhounds sit in second place in the GLVC standings, sharing the spot with Rockhurst. UIndy defeated Rockhurst last Thursday in yet another dominating defensive effort before capping the holiday weekend with a 23-5 victory at William Jewell just two days later.
 
UIndy closes the regular season this weekend at Key Stadium, hosting Quincy on Friday for "Back the Pack" and Missouri Western on Sunday for Senior Day.
