Men's Soccer Games To Watch This Week Sept. 25-Oct. 1
Here’s a look ahead at the games to watch for the week ahead in the BIG EAST, CAA, GLIAC, SAC and Landmark Conference.
FloFC is broadcasting college soccer matches from NCAA Divisions I, II and III all season long, with each week bringing a new, exciting slate of matchups to check out from its partner conferences.
Here’s a look ahead at the games to watch for the week ahead in the BIG EAST, CAA, GLIAC, SAC and Landmark Conference:
BIG EAST: St. John’s Vs. Marquette
The Golden Eagles’ impressive start to the 2023 season (at 7-1-1 currently) hasn’t slowed down, and Valley Fields has been a fortress as Marquette is 6-0 at home thus far this year. St. John’s, on the other hand, is in need of a first BIG EAST win, and could be in the fight to get it after battling Akron to a solid 1-1 draw this past weekend.
CAA: Wake Forest Vs. Campbell
The mighty Demon Deacons, whose alumni list includes current Leeds United winger Jack Harrison and Canada international Alistair Johnston, visit Buies Creek with a seventh NCAA College Cup appearance in their history later this year on their minds. A victory would be a big boost for the Fighting Camels, who’ve stumbled a bit in conference play and could use a surge of momentum.
GLIAC: Parkside Vs. Saginaw Valley State
It’s the current Nos. 1 and 2 in the GLIAC squaring off in what could be a crucial fixture to determine who’s holding the GLIAC regular season title at the end of the calendar. The last three meetings between the Rangers and Cardinals have all resulted in draws, and don’t expect the tension to subside much more in their first of two regular season showdowns of the year, either.
SAC: Lenoir-Rhyne Vs. Wingate
An NCAA Tournament rematch from a year ago, Lenoir-Rhyne beat Wingate in the SAC Tournament en route to capturing the crown before the Bulldogs returned the favor in penalties in the second round of the NCAA tourney, ending the Bears’ season earlier than they would’ve hoped. Can Lenoir-Rhyne get revenge in their first meeting since?
Landmark: Lebanon Valley Vs. Elizabethtown
The Blue Jays’ only defeats of the year have been to two teams—Franklin & Marshall and Messiah—which are both now currently ranked nationally in the top 10 of the most recent United Soccer Coaches Division III men’s poll. The third time might be the charm when Lebanon Valley, ranked No. 20, visits, though the Flying Dutchmen can rack up the goals with 24 scored across just seven matches played thus fa
