Men’s Soccer to host Mayor’s Cup Wednesday

4/18/2017 8:00:00 AM

EVANSVILLE – Evansville bragging rights will be on the line Wednesday as the University of Evansville men's soccer team will host Southern Indiana for the annual Mayor's Cup at Arad McCutchan Stadium.
 
The contest, which is slated for a 6 p.m. kickoff, is being staged in conjunction with the Evansville YMCA. Entry to the match will cost $5, and all proceeds will directly benefit an after school soccer program. Each team has already been involved in a number of youth soccer clinics throughout the spring season, and participants in the program are slated to compete on the field at halftime.
 
In addition to the YMCA, UE has partnered with both ProRehab and Tri-State Orthopaedics to put on the event.
 
Mayor Lloyd Winnecke is slated to be on hand for the pregame festivities.
 
The match comes at an interesting time for UE's men's soccer program. After putting together the second-largest turnaround in UE history last fall, the team has carried the momentum into spring. Wednesday's showdown with USI will wrap up the team's spring season, marking the end of competitive play before the fall season returns in August.
 
Meanwhile, USI enjoyed a fantastic fall season that featured a 13-4-4 record and a trip to the second round of the NCAA Division II tournament.
