Squad composition

How the 50-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Lakeland for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.

• Goalkeepers3
• Defenders20 (15)
• Midfielders18 (7)
• Forwards17 (11)

11 players are listed at two positions; the figure in brackets counts only single-position players. 3 players have no position published.

Who is leaving, and when

6 of the 50 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 12% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

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

• Junior12

• Senior (final year)6

• 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.

Two figures that disagree

Lakeland publishes a squad of 50 for 2026-27. The NCAA recorded 38 for the season before — 12 fewer than the college now lists. Both are as published. Ordinary turnover explains a few players; a gap this size usually means the two are counting different groups, such as everyone who trained against those registered to play.

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.
