Fifty years ago, Maryland and Michigan State men’s soccer played to a 2-2 draw in the NCAA title game and were named co-champions. On Friday night, that 1968 team will be honored when the current Terps and Spartans square off under the lights at Ludwig Field.
The team will be recognized on the field prior to Friday night’s match and will be given personalized championship rings to mark the occasion, head coach Sasho Cirovski said.
The 1968 team finished 14-0-1, and is one of three teams to finish a season undefeated in Maryland history, with the other two coming in 1947 and 1958.
