NCAA Statistics on College Soccer 

The most recent statistics from the NCAA show how hard it is to receive a college soccer scholarship.

On the boys side of the ball only 5.7% of players coming out of high school play college soccer.  The women fair a little better with 7.2% playing college soccer.  A look at the numbers tells a striking tale-

1.3 % of men play Division I                  2.4% of women play Division I

1.5% of men play Division II                  1.9% of women play Division II

2.8% of men play Division III                 2,9% of women play Division III

It is because of these statistics, and based on MSC's staff (over 30 years of Division I coaching experience and over 40 years of college coaching experience on staff by far and away the most experienced staff in Mid-Michigan), that we continue to seek out ways for players interested in playing in college to market themselves. The advisor program we conduct is an idividualized program and works for anyone with the desire to play.
