PHILADELPHIA – Saint Joseph's men's soccer head coach Tim Mulqueen has announced the team's 2025 fall schedule, which features eight home matches at Sweeney Field in his first season leading the program at his alma mater.
"It's a full-circle moment for me as we enter the fall season," Mulqueen said. "There's a deep sense of pride being able to lead this program. We've built a schedule that will challenge us right away. I'm excited to see how this group embraces the work, culture and opportunity to compete at a high level."
The Hawks open the season on Thursday, Aug. 21 in a rematch of last season's first-ever meeting. St. Joe's hosts VMI for the home opener on Saturday, Aug. 23, the two teams meeting for the fourth time and the first time since 2018. Saint Joseph's then makes the short trip to Villanova on Sept. 1 to take on the Wildcats for the first time since 2017.
After an eight-day break, Saint Joseph's returns home on Sept. 9 to host Rider. The Hawks then embark on a three-match road swing, beginning at Dayton on Sept. 13 to open Atlantic 10 play. SJU travels to Bryant for a non-conference midweek contest on Sept. 16, followed by a city rivalry game at La Salle on Sept. 20.
The Hawks close out September with home matches against Loyola (Md.) on Sept. 23 and Duquesne on Sept. 27.
October kicks off with a trip to Davidson on Oct. 4. Saint Joseph's then hosts Loyola Chicago (Oct. 8) and George Washington (Oct. 11) at Sweeney Field. The match against the Revolutionaries will serve as both Senior Day and Alumni Day, with kickoff set for 2 p.m.
Saint Joseph's visits Lehigh on Oct. 14 before playing its final two home games of the regular season: Rhode Island on Oct. 18 and Bucknell on Oct. 21. The Hawks then conclude the regular season on the road, traveling to George Mason on Oct. 25 and Boston College on Oct. 31.
