Shreveport – The Centenary men's soccer team has released its 2023 schedule as the Gents begin the regular season at University of the Ozarks on Friday, Sept. 1 in a non-conference match set for 4:30 p.m. in Clarksville, Ark.
The Gents, led by third-year head coach Kevin White, are scheduled to play 16 regular-season contests, eight at home, seven road matches, and one neutral-site match. Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference play begins at home against Colorado College on Friday, Sept. 29 at 7 p.m. The Gents' first league match on the road is set for Friday, Oct. 13 against The University of Dallas. The Gents will play eight conference matches and eight non-conference matches.
The Gents finished 2-9-6 overall and 1-6-1 in SCAC play in 2022 and the highlight of the season was the Maroon and White landing a record-setting four players on the 2022 All-SCAC Men's Soccer Team. The four all-conference selections are the Gents' most since joining the SCAC prior to the 2012 season as the previous mark was three in 2020. Despite the Gents' struggles in 2022, the defense recorded four shutouts and held the opposition to two goals or less eight times during the season. Centenary also recorded a division III era (2011-present) record six ties.
Centenary will play a pair of exhibition matches to prepare for the regular season – Friday, Aug. 18 at home against Wiley College and Friday, Aug. 25 at LeTourneau University. After the season opener on the road, the Maroon and White will play three-consecutive home matches and play five times at home in the month of September.
The Gents will face host Birmingham-Southern College and Berry College in the BSC Fall Classic Sept. 16-17 in Birmingham, Ala. Centenary then heads to Marshall, Texas to face East Texas Baptist University on Thursday, Sept. 21.
The Gents play a pair of conference matches to open the month of October and then hit the road for three-straight SCAC contests before returning home for their annual Senior Night match against Schreiner University on Friday, Oct. 27 at 5 p.m. Centenary finishes the regular season at Trinity University in San Antonio on Sunday, Oct. 29.
The 2023 SCAC Men's Soccer Championship is scheduled for Nov. 3-5 in Houston and hosted by the University of St. Thomas.
