Squad composition

How the 32-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Rutgers for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.

  • Goalkeepers4
  • Defenders13
  • Midfielders10 (9)
  • Forwards6 (5)

1 player is listed at two positions; the figure in brackets counts only single-position players.

Who is leaving, and when

9 of the 32 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 28% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

Going by position: 4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 1 goalkeeper, 1 forward. Which programmes lose the most at your position?

  • Freshman4

    2 defenders1 goalkeeper1 forward

  • Sophomore13

    7 defenders4 midfielders1 goalkeeper1 forward

  • Junior6

    3 midfielders3 forwards1 goalkeeper

  • Senior (final year)6

    4 defenders1 midfielder1 forward

  • Graduate (final year)3

    2 midfielders1 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.
