The University of Vermont men’s soccer team is one win away from unknown territory: The College Cup.
The Catamounts (16-3-2) will head to third-seeded Syracuse later this week for an NCAA Tournament quarterfinal matchup with the Orange (16-2-4). The winner will advance to the NCAA semifinals — called the College Cup — in Cary, North Carolina.
Vermont-Syracuse is set for a 2 p.m. start on Saturday, Dec. 3.
Vermont and Syracuse met during the regular season, settling for a 1-1 draw at Virtue Field on Sept. 2. The Catamounts, ranked eighth in the country, reached the quarterfinal round for the second time in program history, joining the 1989 squad, following a 3-0 home victory over UCLA this past Saturday night. Previously, the Cats rallied in the first two rounds of the tournament, besting Quinnipiac in double overtime and then storming back on the road at SMU.
