STARKVILLE – For the second time in program history, and the first under head coach James Armstrong, the Mississippi State soccer program will play in the NCAA Tournament.
State will host New Mexico State on Friday, Nov. 11, at 3 p.m. CT. It will be the first meeting between the Bulldogs and the Aggies.
MSU reached its highest ranking in the United Soccer Coaches’ Poll in program history this season when the team checked in at No. 21. The 11 wins so far mark the fourth time State has recorded 11 or more wins in a season.
“This is a very proud day for our program,” Armstrong said. “The girls made a commitment last year to do whatever it took to be a part of the selection show the following year, so we will enjoy this moment. I am so proud of the players and staff for the effort they have put in to making this a historical season so far. We will get back to work to prepare for another game on our home field in front of the loudest fans in the country. We can’t wait to see everyone on Friday. Hail State!”
Ticket information for the general public will be made available later this week. Mississippi State students will be able to attend the match for free.
