WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The Purdue soccer team plays its final game of the spring season against DePaul on Saturday, April 23, at 2 p.m. ET at Folk Field in West Lafayette.
Admission is free for all fans to the spring exhibition matchup.
Saturday is the fourth and final game of the spring for the Boilermakers. A week ago, Purdue downed UIC, 3-1, in its first game at Folk Field in 2022. The exhibition season began with a 4-0 win over Evansville on February 26 at the Mollenkopf Athletic Center and also included a midweek loss at Notre Dame on April 12.
The Old Gold and Black are coming off a memorable 2021 campaign, as they went 15-4-3, their second-best record and second-most wins in team history behind only 2007. Purdue made the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2009, and seventh time in program history, and advanced to the second round for the fourth time and first since 2007. The squad went 8-2-0 in the Big Ten and notched a runner-up finish, both tied for their best-ever marks.
Purdue finished the year ranked No. 24 in the final United Soccer Coaches Top 25 national poll, appearing in the postseason poll for the third time ever and the first since 2007. Individual accolades included an All-America honor, two All-Region accolades, five All-Big Ten Team awards, the Big Ten Forward of the Year and the first two NWSL draft picks in team history.
