In this week’s Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association poll, the Lady Saints field hockey team came in at No. 8.

Nansemond-Suffolk Academy field hockey dropped back one spot from seven to eight in the most recent VISAA poll. The Lady Saints will look to make up as much ground as they can with one regular season game left before playoff time. NSA will go on the road Tuesday afternoon to face Steward School.

Last year, NSA finished within the top five, earning them a berth to the state tournament. The Lady Saints will likely be on the road this season during the playoffs.
