Loras College Athletics

Loras College is a Catholic liberal-arts college looking for student-athletes who are serious about their academics and have the maturity to handle the high expectations of our soccer program. The foundation of our men's soccer program is set upon:

WE > Me

Loras Soccer Team & Player - We strive to be the hardest working team with direct purpose and relentless pursuit to win. Our team is built upon having true competitors with the will to do anything to get an extra day with their family.

Lifelong Relationships – On Track for Desired Career Path – Most Fun in the Country

A GREAT LEVEL OF PLAY
In addition, we are looking for players who have a high level of technical, tactical, and athletic ability. We often attract players who choose Loras over a mid-major DI school because of the environment, culture, and intentionally positive team chemistry found in our program. 

POSITIONAL NEEDS
We look to bring in top players no matter the position. We look for versatility rather than positionally. 

THE RECRUITING PROCESS
The team is chosen primarily through the recruiting process with possible walk-on opportunities in the Spring. Therefore, it is important for interested high school student-athletes and transfers to understand both the process and the timing. The following are some steps you can take to help the recruiting process:

1. Contact Us: Fill out our Recruiting Form so we will have your information. Then follow up with a personal email to both Head Coach Sam Koenig (Samuel.koenig@loras.edu) and Recruiting Coordinator Dylan Milkent (dylan.milkent@loras.edu)  
2. What to email: Send us highlights, academic interests, and any upcoming events that you may be attending with your schedule, uniform number, and typical positions. If you are a goalkeeper, please let us know if you are splitting halves.
3. Visit Campus: This is the most important part of the process. This will allow you to see what we are about at Loras and interact with the coaches and guys on the team. You can book your visit here! Please let us know the day and time you register!
4. Attend Our ID Clinic: The Men's Soccer ID Camp is a helpful part of our initial identification process in our recruiting timeline as well as final evaluations going into your senior year. This provides an opportunity for high school and transfer players to train at a high level, be seen by the Loras staff, and get a feel for the culture of the program. The ID Camp has become the most important part of our recruiting process as we make many of our roster decisions based on the evaluation from this camp.
5. Come to a Game: It is of great benefit for you to see us play and get a firsthand look at the level of play, the team's style, and the atmosphere surrounding a game.

For the right student-athlete, we believe Loras has the perfect blend of academics and an elite athletic experience. Possibilities are endless here. We believe Loras is the most unique and special place to play in the country.  Our staff fully intends to prepare you for life. Become a Duhawk today!
