For the 19th consecutive season under head coach Sasho Cirovski, Maryland men’s soccer is off to the NCAA tournament to compete for another national title.
The Terps’ postseason hopes fluctuated between seeming like a sure thing and in certain doubt throughout the season, beginning the year 1-2 before going on to earn results in seven of their next eight matches.
Cirovski & Co. have managed to linger just within the Top-25 for much of the season, defeating four ranked opponents in St. John’s, Cal State Fullerton, Indiana and Yale. But Maryland finished with a 3-3-2 record in Big Ten play, culminating in a fifth place finish in the conference and a loss in the tournament semifinals.
