November 06, 2023 | Soccer
STARKVILLE – Monday, November 6th was not just another Monday in the eyes of the collegiate soccer world. This day has been marked by coaches, student athletes and fans alike as the coveted "Selection Monday" where each team watches anxiously to see where their postseason road will begin. After achieving a 10-5-5 record, State earned the 6th seed in the NCAA Tournament and the opportunity to host the Providence Friars for a matchup in Starkville.
The No. 18 Bulldogs (10-5-5, 5-3-2 SEC) will battle the Friars (10-4-5, 4-1-5 Big East) on Saturday, November 11th at the MSU Soccer Field with kickoff scheduled for 1 PM CT. This matchup marks the second consecutive season that postseason soccer has been played on MSU's home pitch.
The Bulldogs and Friars will both be making their third overall appearance in the NCAA Tournament when they meet on Saturday. Under Head Coach James Armstrong, State has earned back-to-back 10+ win seasons for the first time in program history.
State fans are encouraged to pack the pitch on Saturday at 1 PM as the Bulldogs begin their road to the College Cup. The match will be streamed live on ESPN+ for those unable to attend. Ticket information for the First Round of the NCAA Tournament can be found here.
