Vito Higgins, keeper for the 2007 Men's Soccer Team, was on the last team to be ranked until now.
Higgins remembers his teammates packing up for Thanksgiving break in a dejected state, when the Zags discovered they had in fact received a tournament bid.
“It was definitely a surprise,” he said. “We had won some pretty big games, we had been ranked and had some success, but we had also struggled for a good part of the season too, so we had kind of more or less crossed ourselves off the list of going to the tournament.
