Squad composition

How the 24-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Western Ill. for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.

  • Goalkeepers2
  • Defenders7
  • Midfielders9
  • Forwards6

Who is leaving, and when

6 of the 24 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 25% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.

Going by position: 3 forwards, 2 defenders, 1 midfielder.

  • Freshman9

    5 midfielders2 defenders2 forwards

  • Sophomore5

    2 goalkeepers2 midfielders1 forward

  • Junior4

    3 defenders1 midfielder

  • Senior (final year)4

    3 forwards1 defender

  • Graduate (final year)2

    1 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.
