With its eighth annual matchup last Friday, Socctoberfest has cemented itself as an important tradition for Creighton soccer and the Omaha community.
But the event has proven to be more than a full stein of beer and a meal ticket. The annual double-header serves as much-needed energy in the locker room and a catalyst for local fans at the beginning of the season.
Since its inception in 2012, Socctoberfest has grown into an anticipated fall tradition for Bluejay soccer and Creighton athletics as a whole.
This year brought 1,246 fans to the wom- en’s matchup and 4,818 to the men’s game later in the evening.
