Former national powerhouse UW-Oshkosh is reviving its men's soccer program. The Titans, who made 14 D3 tourney appearances and reached the Final Four four times before deep-sixing the program after the 2015 season, will end their hiatus after a dozen years by returning to action in 2027.

This will bump up the WIAC to seven teams, with only UW-La Crosse failing to sponsor a varsity men's soccer program within that circuit.

Just getting this topic started.

Every year I note here the schools that are losing their D3 men's basketball tournament virginity. Congratulations to the following programs that will be participating in the tournament for the first time ever:

Case Western Reserve
Eastern
Vassar
Wilson

I am absolutely loving how PBP broadcaster Dave McHugh has now referred twice to Conn College GK Sam Maidenburg as "Maidenform."

(Sounds like something I'd do behind the mic, frankly.)

The NCAA Men's Soccer Playing Rules Oversight Panel has approved several new rules that are designed to align the NCAA more closely with international rules.
