The Rutgers men’s soccer team kicks off its 2021 season on Thursday night against Delaware at Yurcak Field. After finishing in fifth place in the Big Ten with a 4-4-1 record overall in a spring shortened season due to COVID-19, the program is primed to make more progress this fall. They return all but one starter and almost every key reserve as 91% of minutes played last season was with players on the current roster.
Earlier this week, the Scarlet Knights were picked to finish in sixth place in the Big Ten preseason coaches poll. The complete poll is here:
