TO BE THE BEST, YOU BEAT THE BEST: Swarthmore has played seven teams that were ranked in the top 25 at the time in the 12 games. The Garnet recorded its third win in such games on Wednesday night. Outside of the first game of the season against then-No. 4 Salisbury, the last six matchups with nationally-ranked teams have all been decided by just one goal. Two of those games have gone to overtime and three have been 1-0 final scores. The Garnet's other five games against non-ranked teams have been decided by an average of 4.0 goals per game.
