Squad composition
How the 26-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Chicago St. for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.
- Goalkeepers2
- Defenders13
- Midfielders9
- Forwards2
Who is leaving, and when
11 of the 26 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 42% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.
Going by position: 6 defenders, 4 midfielders, 1 goalkeeper. Which programmes lose the most at your position?

- Senior (final year)11

- Graduate (final year)0
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. 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.
| Season | W | L | T | Win % |
