Vikings Soccer Full Season Schedule

Looking Back

Vikings Soccer will look to improve on their fourth-place finish in the south division from the 2019-20 season, in hopes of clinching a spot in the playoffs this year.

Going 6-6-0 during their last season of action, the Vikings finished four points back of a playoff spot. 

However, the Vikings had a strong scoring touch with 34 shots finding the back of the net for the fifth-most goals in the league.

Players to Watch

Entering her third year with the team, her second year of eligibility due to COVID-19, Sydnee Dallyn will have all eyes on her as she looks to build off of her stellar rookie season where she earned ACAC All-Conference team recognition as one of the top defenders in the south conference.

Along with Dallyn, Hanna Boyce will also be lacing up her boots for a second season after coming off a solid rookie year in 2019-20. Boyces four goals and nine assists were more than enough to land her on the ACAC All-Conference team.

A new and bright addition to the roster will be Kristy Hernandez, who head coach Tom McManus believes has the skills, work ethic, and love for the game that it takes to be successful in her debut.
