## Historic Season for Men’s Soccer


After completing an undefeated regular season with a No. 1 national ranking and a Big Ten title, the Maryland men’s soccer team ended the year with a run to the Elite Eight in the NCAA Tournament.

The conference title, clinched with a 4-3 victory over Michigan State, was Maryland’s 50th across all sports since joining the Big Ten in 2014. Standout performances from six First Team All-Big Ten honorees, a men’s soccer program record, fueled the Terps’ success. The team lost, 3-1, to No. 3 Washington on Dec. 6.

“They brought the Maryland style, the Maryland culture and the Maryland pride back into our program,” head coach Sasho Cirovski says of his team. “I’m so grateful for the season we’ve had.”
