Squad composition

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

  • Goalkeepers2
  • Defenders9
  • Midfielders6
  • Forwards10

Who is leaving, and when

10 of the 27 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 37% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

Going by position: 4 defenders, 4 forwards, 1 goalkeeper, 1 midfielder.

  • Freshman2

    1 midfielder1 forward

  • Sophomore6

    3 defenders2 forwards1 goalkeeper

  • Junior9

    4 midfielders3 forwards2 defenders

  • Senior (final year)7

    4 forwards3 defenders

  • Graduate (final year)3

    1 goalkeeper1 defender1 midfielder

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.

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.
