Women's soccer opens up their season tonight with an exhibition game against Morehead State at Alumni Field.
Men's soccer opens up tomorrow night with an exhibition game at Xavier.
The Women's team recently promoted Travis Sobers as head coach. Sobers was previously the Associate Head Coach and also played on the Men's team from 1998-2001
I think the Raiders have two alumni playing professionally right now, both in the USL League 1 which falls below MLS and USL Championship on the US soccer pyramid. Jackson Dietrich scored a goal last night for the Chattanooga Red Wolves (2 goals on the season). Deri Corfe plays for FC Tucson (3 goals, 2 assists). Maybe there are more, but these are the two I'm aware of.

The men finished out their exhibition games with a 1-1 draw. The Raiders have some tough games ahead on their non-conference schedule, looking forward to the season starting.
I realized I left off another professional former Raider in my first post. AJ Paterson plays for the Charleston Battery of the USL Championship series and is also on the Grenada national team.

Ouch, that was rough. I knew it would be a tough game but didn't expect it would be that bad.

Not a win, but they put on a good show against Oklahoma State. This team has a lot of potential.
