SPARTANBURG, SC –   The UNC Greensboro (UNCG) men's soccer team has earned the third seed in the 2025 Southern Conference (SoCon) Tournament. The Spartans will travel to Macon, Georgia, to take on No. 6 seed VMI on Friday, Nov. 7, at 7:00 p.m. at Betts Stadium.
Mercer posted a 3-1-1 mark in SoCon play, including a draw with Furman in the league opener, to earn the No. 2 seed. The Bears will play the winner of No. 3 UNC Greensboro and No. 6 VMI on Sunday, November 9, at 7:00 pm in Macon. The Spartans and Keydets will play on November 7 at 7:00 p.m.
UNCG, ranked No. 23 nationally, secured the No. 3 seed with a 3-0 win over the Bears on Saturday night. The Spartans played a strong national schedule out of conference, posting excellent results, picking up a key regional win over No. 5 High Point, and playing to draws at No. 9 Virginia and No. 3 NC State in October. 
VMI ended the regular season on a high note as well, snapping an 87-match losing streak in SoCon play that stretched back to the 2002 season. The Keydets defeated ETSU, 2-1, on Saturday afternoon, its first SoCon win since beating The Citadel, 4-2, on September 16, 2002, in Lexington, VA.
The tournament champion receives the SoCon's automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Men's Soccer Championship.
