This past season was another strong step forward for our program. We finished with a 14-4-2 record and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament once again—our third trip to postseason in the last four years. That kind of consistency doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the product of daily commitment, shared belief, and a culture built on accountability, humility, and relentless work.
The group in our locker room represents everything we want Cornell Soccer to stand for. They are driven, selfless, and committed to growth—on the field, in the classroom, and in how they carry themselves as teammates and leaders. Whether playing heavy minutes or pushing from behind the scenes, every player contributes to raising our collective level. Coaching them is a privilege.
Sustaining excellence at the Division I level is a constant challenge. Recruiting the right people, providing first-class training and recovery resources, and creating meaningful experiences for our student-athletes all require investment. That’s where Giving Day makes a real difference.
Thank You!
The support of our alumni, parents, and friends is a competitive advantage for us. Your generosity directly impacts the daily lives of our players and helps ensure that Cornell Men’s Soccer remains a destination program—one that competes for Ivy League championships and makes consistent runs in the NCAA Tournament.
We are grateful for the belief you’ve shown in our vision and for the role you continue to play in our success. Thank you for standing with us, investing in our student-athletes, and helping us push this program forward.
All the best and Go Big Red!
