I so hope your Deacs made the chilly trek to Spry Stadium yesterday afternoon to watch our #1 ranked men’s soccer team take on UNC-Charlotte. It was a cold and windy day, so dressing warm was a must. Looked to be a huge crowd, too. […]
The NCAA Tournament bracket came out for men’s soccer – and we are seeded #1. Our Deacs will play this Sunday at Spry Stadium at 1 pm; they will face the winner of the Radford-Charlotte game on Thursday. There’s a nice video with […]
