2019 AKRON MEN'S SOCCER SCHEDULE

AKRON, Ohio - The 2019 campaign for the University of Akron men's soccer team marks the 65th year in the program's storied history. Now 65 days away from the Zips' season-opening match at Xavier on Aug. 30, we are asking for help from our passionate fans and former student-athletes to help tell the story of our rich history.

We are asking those with photos of former players, teams, matches and moments, especially from the early years, to share those either with direct messages to our official twitter account @ZipsMSOC or via email at zipsmsoc65@gmail.com. Please include any identifications that you can offer on the photo so that we may include that in any and all posts.

In 2019, the Zips' 11-match season-ticket package features visits to FirstEnergy Stadium from Stanford from the Pac-12 Conference, Michigan and Michigan State from the Big Ten, Cornell from the Ivy League, Florida International from Conference USA and Virginia Commonwealth from the Atlantic-10. A very fan-friendly slate features six of Akron's 11 home games taking place on a Saturday or Sunday.

Akron is set to return seven starters in 2019, including 2018 All-Mid-American Conference performers, senior Skye Harter (Copley, Ohio), junior David Egbo (Enugu, Nigeria) and sophomores Carlo Ritaccio (Westbury, N.Y.) and Sam Tojaga (Erie, Pa.) from a squad that captured the Mid-American Conference tournament title en route to advancing to title match of the College Cup for the fourth time in program history on the strength of an overall record of 15-7-2.

The Zips open their regular season campaign traveling to Cincinnati to battle Xavier on Aug. 30, before Stanford makes only its second-ever appearance at FirstEnergy Stadium for Akron's home opener on Sept. 2.
