Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox college soccer team The Evansville Purple Aces men's soccer team represents the University of Evansville in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) of NCAA Division I soccer. The Purple Aces play their home matches on Black Beauty Field at Arad McCutchan Stadium on the north end of the university's campus in Evansville, Indiana. The team is currently coached by Marshall Ray.

History

The program began in 1974, under head coach Bill Vieth. Since then, the Purple Aces have made the NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Tournament 11 times.

1985

Evansville first made the Final Four in 1985, under head coach Fred Schmalz. After going 21–1–2 in the regular season, the Purple Aces qualified for the NCAA tournament, a feat the program has accomplished twice up to this point. During the tournament, Evansville beat the likes of Indiana (3–0), and Penn State (1–0). It was UCLA who bested them in the Final Four, by a score of 3 to 1. The Bruins would eventually beat American to win the tournament.

1990

Still under head coach Schmalz, the program reached the NCAA tournament for the sixth year in a row. Going 24–1–2 in the regular season, the team won the MCC championship and topped the regular season standings. During the NCAA tournament, Evansville bested Boston and Indiana, both by a score of 1–0. Rutgers would go on to beat them in the Final Four, and advance to the championship, where they lost to UCLA.

Notable players

Through the years, many Purple Aces have gone on to play professionally, and twelve have been named All-Americans for their play at Evansville.
