The Midwest Conference released its 2013 Men's Soccer Coaches Poll on Tuesday and Lake Forest College was picked to claim its second straight league championship and the 16th title in program history. The Foresters return 10 of 11 starters, including Mahir Mameledzija, who led the nation in goals last year.
Voting is done by the MWC head men's soccer coaches. Each coach votes for the ten other schools in the conference in order of predicted finish. Points are assigned in reverse order of voting (ten points for first, nine for second, etc.). Coaches may not vote for their own teams.

| 1 | Lake Forest (9) | 99 |
| 2 | Carroll (2) | 91 |
| 3 | Grinnell | 73 |
| 4 | Beloit | 66 |
| 5 | St. Norbert | 65 |
| 6 | Lawrence | 55 |
| 7 | Illinois Col. | 44 |
| 8 | Ripon | 39 |
| 9 | Knox | 37 |
| 10 | Monmouth | 24 |
| 11 | Cornell | 12 |
