Men's Soccer vs. Lehigh, playing on Myslik Field at Roberts Stadium

Princeton men's and women's soccer opened their season this September in a new, state-of-the-art stadium, made possible through the support of alumni and friends of Princeton soccer. Roberts Stadium is named in honor of Thomas S. Roberts '85, a former record-holding goalkeeper on the men's soccer team. The new playing field is named in memory of Robert Hauter Myslik '90, a soccer player, teacher, and former assistant Princeton soccer coach who was killed in an automobile accident in 2003.

The Princeton women's soccer team has appeared in six straight NCAA tournaments from 1999 to 2004, and won four of five Ivy League titles from 2000 to 2004. The men's team has won six Ivy League Championships and has seen 13 players achieve All-America status.
