WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – On the heels of one of its best seasons in program history, the Purdue soccer team will play five spring exhibition games in 2022, including four in West Lafayette.
The first game is set for Saturday, February 26, and continues through the spring finale on Saturday, April 23. As the team returns to the pitch following an NCAA Tournament run in 2021, the spring schedule provides an early look at the 2022 Boilermakers.
The spring slate commences this Saturday, February 26, against Evansville. The game will be held at the Mollenkopf Athletic Center and will be closed to the general public. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET.
One month later, Purdue hosts Indiana State on March 26, at 1 p.m. at Folk Field. The team then travels to Notre Dame on April 9 at 2 p.m.
The final two matches will be at Folk Field, beginning on April 16 against UIC at 1 p.m. The spring season concludes on April 23 against DePaul at 2 p.m.
Coming off a memorable 2021 campaign, the Boilermakers 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.
