NORFOLK, Va. - Old Dominion men's soccer head coach Alan Dawson announced the Monarchs schedule for the 2021 season on Friday afternoon, which will begin on Saturday, Feb. 6 at VCU in Richmond, Va.
In all, ODU's slate features 11 total matches, with six of those games taking place at the ODU Soccer Complex: Campbell (Feb. 14), George Mason (Feb. 20), South Carolina (March 14), Florida Atlantic (March 21), Charlotte (April 4) and FIU (April 17).
"First and foremost, we are excited to begin play and compete again," said ODU head coach Alan Dawson. "Early in the season, we have a strong series of regional games to help prepare us for an extremely competitive C-USA slate. Every point will be important in a race to win the regular season and automatic NCAA bid, as there will be no postseason C-USA Tournament. We are up for the challenge and ready to get back on the pitch."
The Monarchs will play seven league matches over the course of the regular season. The regular season champion from Conference USA will earn league's automatic bid to the 2021 NCAA Tournament.
Two hundred and fifty fans will be allowed to attend home ODU Soccer games this season. Fans will be admitted on a first come, first served basis. The entry gate on 43rd Street will open 60 minutes prior to kickoff. Fans can park in Lot 43.
