Rocky Mount, NC - As the spring season rolls in, the N.C. Wesleyan men's soccer team has announced its annual spring play date, scheduled for Saturday, April 12th on Scalf Field. The Battling Bishops will compete in four matches throughout the day, hosting a talented lineup of opponents in a showcase of high-level competition.

Following the final match of the day, the team will honor its senior class with a special recognition ceremony and cookout celebration, open to players, families, and supporters of the program.

The spring slate comes on the heels of an outstanding 2024 campaign, which saw the Battling Bishops dominate the USA South Conference en route to a perfect 7-0-0 conference record and the program's 11th USA South Regular Season Championship. Under the guidance of Head Coach Mark Bowman, who was named USA South Coach of the Year for the second time in his tenure, the team compiled a 9-3-4 overall record, becoming the first team since 2019 to go undefeated and untied in league play.

Wesleyan also made waves in the USA South All-Conference awards. Tiago Feler, Carson Evans, and Bastien Dechamps all earned First-Team honors, while Daan Post and Rafael Farina secured spots on the Second-Team. Their performances were instrumental in the Bishops' dominant run.
