South Orange, N.J. - Coming off a 1-0 road win at FIU last week, the Seton Hall men's soccer team entered the United Soccer Coaches Poll at No. 25 in the rankings released on Tuesday afternoon. The Pirates have now been nationally ranked at least once in four of the last five seasons; the team was last ranked on Sept. 5, 2023 at No. 23.
The Pirates are one of two BIG EAST teams in the current top-25, joining No. 16 Georgetown.
Seton Hall's road win at FIU last Thursday was a 1-0 shutout over the Panthers that featured the game-winning goal by junior Agustin Resch (Arata, Argentina) on a header and three saves from junior Matias Molina (Rosario, Argentina).
In head coach Andreas Lindberg's tenure, Seton Hall appeared in the United Soccer Coaches top-25 seven times during the truncated 2020 season, reaching as high as No. 6. Then Seton Hall spent four weeks in the national rankings during 2021.
No. 25 Seton Hall will face UAlbany in its home opener Thursday night at Owen T. Carroll Field at 6:56 p.m. The game is free to attend, and schedule posters will be given away while supplies last.
