Soccer 25th Season All-Time Team
Preference was given to student-athletes who had played a minimum of two seasons with the Bulldogs and left a lasting impact on the program’s record book. Eleven “starters” were chosen using a common 3-4-3 formation. Three additional forwards and a pair of midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers make up the “reserves”.
The roster includes eight school record holders that combine to hold the top mark in 35 statistical categories. Eight of the 20 student-athletes reached the postseason during their MSU careers.
Throughout the season, the Bulldogs will recognize each member of the all-time team with a feature story on HailState.com beginning on Aug. 13.
