The STLCC Archer’s Men’s soccer team officially started with a season opener exhibition match on Aug. 12 at Northern Illinois University, with a final score of 6 – 0.
On Aug. 18, the Men’s Soccer team played an exhibition match against Garden City Community College at the Meramec campus, resulting in a win of 3 – 2.
To prepare for the upcoming season, Coach Tim Mosby said they are “using each training or practice to get better and get to know each other,” along with getting their “fitness up” by “doing a lot of fitness work.”
The Men’s Soccer team has a few goals in mind this year, according to Mosby.
“Obviously our goal is to win the championship and take one game at a time at this point,” said Mosby.
Going into the season, Mosby said he sees their strengths as being pretty well rounded.
“We have good offensive players and good defensive players,” said Mosby.
He said for weaknesses, the team is still working to play as one. The team is looking to achieve the same success as the past four years, said Mosby. The Archer’s Men’s soccer team had 64 wins in four years from 2013-2017. “It’s probably one of the best in the nation,” said Mosby.
