Squad composition

How the 30-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Akron for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.

• Goalkeepers4
• Defenders10 (9)
• Midfielders11 (10)
• Forwards5

1 player is listed at two positions; the figure in brackets counts only single-position players. 1 player has no position published.

Who is leaving, and when

6 of the 30 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 20% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

Going by position: 3 midfielders, 2 defenders, 1 goalkeeper. Which programmes lose the most at your position?

Final-year groups are shown in amber. A player listed at two positions is counted under each of them, since they provide cover in either, so the positions on a row can total more than the row itself. Redshirt players are counted in the year they are listed for, of which there are 4. 1 player has no class year published and is not counted above.

Recent results

Overall record across the last 3 seasons. Soccer is a fall sport, so each season runs from August to a championship in December of the year shown. The NCAA files them by academic year, so the 2025 season appears as 2025-26 on its own site.
