For the first time since 2017, the Butler men’s soccer team will compete in the Division I Men’s Soccer NCAA Tournament. The Bulldogs will host West Virginia in the first round of the tournament on Nov. 21 at the Sellick Bowl at 6 p.m.

Butler finished the regular season 11-6-2 overall and 4-4-1 in Big East play. They returned to the Big East tournament after missing conference postseason play in 2018 and ultimately fell to the eventual Big East champion, the Georgetown Hoyas, by way of penalty kicks in the semifinal round.
