Former Saint Francis women’s soccer players and their families are invited to attend a tailgate reception and meal from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Aug 17, before the season opening game against Defiance College. The meal will be held behind the Cougar Den, located to the south of Trinity Hall.

At 6:50 p.m., former players will be recognized on the field as we celebrate 30 years of women’s soccer at Saint Francis. The game will start at 7 p.m. and tickets are $3.

"I’m very excited to reconnect with players from the past and their families. Saint Francis and this program has been such an important part of my life, and they are the ones who made it special. I’m also excited to see Coach Cristy Young and all the players from her era," Coach Ken Nuber said.

The Alumni Association, along with Saint Francis women’s soccer, will host this event. RSVP by August 12 to Ken Nuber at knuber@sf.edu or 574-274-3748 or Tony Didier at adidier@sf.edu or 260-399-8032.
