Men’s Soccer Faces No. 5 Virginia Saturday

TAMPA, Fla. – In its final match of exhibition play, the University of South Florida men’s soccer team will travel to Virginia to face the preseason No. 5 Cavaliers Saturday, Aug. 25 at 7 p.m.

The Bulls are coming off two home exhibition wins over the University of Tampa and preseason No. 19 Saint Louis, both by scores of 2-0.

Saturday’s test from Klockner Stadium will be a formidable one, however, as UVA finished with a 17-4-1 record and an appearance in the Men’s College Cup Final Four a year ago.  The Cavs’ only preseason date so far this year, against Virginia Commonwealth, was cancelled due to weather.

USF is 0-2-1 against UVA in regular season play since the first time the two teams met in 1985.  The pair last clashed in the NCAA Tournament in 2005, following USF’s first-ever BIG EAST Red Division title.  The match ended in a tie, however Virginia was able to advance 7-6 on penalty kicks, ending USF’s 11th overall trip to the tournament.

Virginia is one of six opponents the Bulls will face this season (exhibition included) to make the NCAA field a year ago.

The men’s soccer team will return home to face in-state rival UCF in the regular season opener, Fri., Aug. 31 at 7:30 p.m.  Tickets are available by calling 1-800-GoBulls or at www.GoUSFBulls.com.

That is a great call having soccer season coincide with football season, sometimes I think the organizers of soccer go out of their way to make sure it stays irrelevant in the USA (not that I am mad about that).

I'm not a big soccer fan so forgive me for asking but how do we look this year?

It's a shame these are exhibition games... wins over these two squads would vault USF into the top-10. St. Louis and UVA have been powerhouses for quite awhile now.

Game should be over in about 20-30 minutes. Hopefully the score will be posted.

Go Bulls!

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
