UDC Men's Soccer Ranks 6th in the East Region in United Soccer Coaches Poll 1
WASHINGTON, DC- The University of the District of Columbia's men's soccer team was ranked sixth in the first United Soccer Coaches, Division II East Regional poll. The Firebirds were 2-1-1 on the season when the poll was released, and has since then improved their record to 3-1-1.
This is the best start to the season the program has had since the 2017 season. UDC has had 13 Student-Athletes make it onto the scoresheet over five games, with Santiago Gordillo Martinez leading with three goals, and Zouhir Warid and Giovanni Campero posting three assists each.
The Firebird defense, led by goalkeeper Javier Abadia Torres has conceded only five goals over five games, which is the least amount of goals since the 2013 season.
UDC will head to Pennsylvania on Saturday to face off against Slippery Rock University at noon.
