The 25th season of Kansas soccer will be one that is not soon forgotten. A Big 12 Tournament Championship, a run of 11 unbeaten results, the league's defensive player of the year, an All-American and a run to the NCAA Sweet 16 will insert this team as one of the best in the program's young but impressive history.
Kansas seniors Katie McClure and Addisyn Merrick, as well as junior Ceri Holland were named to the Midwest All-Region teams by the United Soccer Coaches Monday.
Two second-half goals were too much for No. 11 Kansas to overcome as the No. 5 South Carolina Gamecocks topped the Jayhawks, 2-0, in the third round of the NCAA Tournament.
The No. 3-seeded Kansas soccer team will look to punch a ticket to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Championship for the first time in program history when they meet the No. 2 seed South Carolina Gamecocks on Sunday, Nov. 24. Kickoff from Stone Stadium is set for 1 p.m. (CT) on SEC Network+ and ESPN3.
