CAMP REGISTRATION HERE!

Squad Update: 
We are in week 7 of the spring season & the guys are progressing well! During this phase before Spring Break, we mostly focus on playing as much as possible & taking full advantage of having a big turf dome to stretch our legs in. The lads are also working with our performance coach regularly & the group are in a different place with their fitness & strength work than this time last year. We are happy with the progress but much more work ahead if championships are to arrive in Collegeville this Fall. Our Spring wraps up with a game vs St Cloud State on April 23rd in Collegeville. You’re welcome to come watch! 

Incoming class:
Recruiting for the 2026 season is complete. We have another big class coming in & one I can say will potentially make some waves in the North Region. We needed another good & deep group after graduating 7 seniors, unfortunately a few injuries which may cause redshirt years, a handful of Juniors chose to focus on other parts of their college experience, & some minor normal squad melt. The incoming group is as strong as any I’ve recruited and includes; 2 transfers (D1 midfielder & D3 Final-Four Goalkeeper), 3 MLS Next Academy players, 11 Elite Club National League (ECNL) guys, & as always, a few hidden gems that we think will develop into great Johnnie Soccer players. We needed reinforcements in every spot & that’s what we got. 

As always thank you for your support!  Follow along with our Instagram for more immediate updates on the team. Final thoughts & prayers go out to Dave Clements ’94 & his family. Rest in peace DC3. 

GO JOHNNIES!
