ORLANDO, Fla. (www.ucfathletics.com) - The UCF men's soccer team will continue its spring season Saturday, hosting a round robin tournament at the UCF Soccer Complex. The field will include Stetson, St. Leo and North Florida, with each team playing three 45-minute games. Contests will be held on both the Knights' main competition field as well as their practice field.
On the game field, UCF will take on St. Leo at 11 a.m. while Stetson plays North Florida on the practice field. At noon, the Knights will face UNF on the game field while Stetson and St. Leo battle on the practice field. The round robin concludes at 1 p.m. with UCF playing Stetson on the game field and UNF and Stetson competing on the practice field.
Boasting one of the youngest teams in the country with 17 freshmen, UCF (7-11-1) had its most victories since winning seven games in 2005. The Knights tied their previous record with three Conference USA wins, finishing in a tie for third place. They also won a conference tournament game for the first time.
Freshman Kevan George led the team in both goals (4) and points (10) and was the lone freshman in the league to earn a spot on the All-Conference USA first team.
