For the first time since 1992, four University of Evansville soccer players have been selected as all-region. Junior midfielder Robby Lynch (Carmel, Ind./Carmel) was a second team selection on the NSCAA/Performance Subaru All-Midwest Region Team, while junior forward Tom Irvin (Collinsville, Ill./St. Louis U. High), sophomore defender Justin Sass (New Palestine, Ind./New Palestine) and sophomore midfielder Richard Menjivar (North Hills, Cal./James Monroe) were third team selections. Evansville put two players on the 2008 all-region squad, but had not placed as many as four players on the all-region squad since Trey Harrington, Shane Schmidt, Ian Dunbar and Diego Gutierrez were chosen in 1992.

Lynch was first team all-Missouri Valley Conference after finishing second on the team with five goals and seven assists for 17 points. Irvin and Menjivar were second team all-MVC selections, and Sass made the honorable mention team. Irvin led the Aces in scoring and ranked third in the MVC with six goals and eight assists for 20 points. Sass totaled three goals for six points, and led a defense that held opponents to 25 goals, the fewest since 2003 and second fewest since 1991. Menjivar was fourth on the squad with six assists from his center midfield position.

The Aces finished with a 12-8-1 record, their fourth consecutive winning season under fourth-year coach Mike Jacobs. They defeated MVC champion Missouri State in the semifinals of the State Farm MVC Tournament championship match before losing in the championship match 2-1 to Drake, which went on to reach the Elite 8 in the NCAA Men's Soccer Championship.
