EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Evansville goalkeeper Michal Mroz (Elk Grove/Elk Grove, Ill.) became the first player in program history to be selected in the MLS SuperDraft on Thursday afternoon, being taken in the third round with the 83^rd overall pick by Minnesota United FC. Mroz joins Corey Elenio (2008) and Robby Lynch (2011) as MLS draftees, with the latter two being supplemental selections.

Mroz enjoyed a historic sophomore season for Evansville in 2025, earning the program's first-ever MVC Goalkeeper of the Year award and helping the Aces clinch a share of the MVC regular season title for the first time in program history.

After earning a spot on the MVC All-Freshman team in 2024, Mroz established himself as one of the top keepers in the country this season. Mroz's .950 goals against average ranked 46^th nationally, while his save percentage of .750 was good for 60^h. In MVC play, Mroz was especially stout, leading the league in goals against average (.714), save percentage (.839), and shutouts (4) in regular season play.

As a freshman in 2024, Mroz was an integral part of Evansville's run to the MVC Tournament championship, starting all 21 matches in goal. Mroz posted an 11-7-3 record with a 1.55 goals against average and posted five clean sheets, the second-most in the Valley. Mroz also ranked second in the MVC with 4.10 saves per game, holding a season save percentage of .723. 

Mroz rose to the occasion during the Aces' 2024 MVC championship run, most notably shutting out top-seeded and nationally-ranked Missouri State in the MVC Tournament semifinal. In the first round of the NCAA Tournament against Massachusetts, Mroz made a season-high nine saves.
