Squad composition

How the 36-player squad breaks down by position, as published by McKendree for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.

  • Goalkeepers5
  • Defenders9 (8)
  • Midfielders14 (13)
  • Forwards8

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 36 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 17% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

Going by position: 4 defenders, 1 goalkeeper, 1 midfielder. Which programmes lose the most at your position?

  • Freshman13

    5 midfielders3 forwards2 goalkeepers2 defenders1 without a position

  • Sophomore11

    6 midfielders3 defenders2 forwards1 goalkeeper

  • Junior6

    3 forwards2 midfielders1 goalkeeper

  • Senior (final year)3

    2 defenders1 midfielder

  • Graduate (final year)3

    2 defenders1 goalkeeper

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 is 1.

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.
