From the Coach's Office

The summer has come and gone, the smell of fall is among us. I can’t believe I have been at Millikin for eight months now. With that being said, it is now my favorite time of year. Pre-season camp and students arriving back to campus. Competition is in the air, can you think of any thing better. The soccer program will compete daily both in training and matches. Many players will define their role over the next couple of weeks. It will be a challenging process but I look for upperclassmen to step to the forefront while freshmen will lay a foundation for themselves and the program. The program returns twenty-one players and brings in nineteen newcomers. Buckle up and let the chaos begin, it will be a fun fall.
