2022 University of Redlands Men's Soccer Schedule 

REDLANDS, Calif. - University of Redlands Head Men's Soccer Coach Ralph Perez released his 2022 schedule Monday, which includes four non-conference games, two of which will be played in Michigan (Calvin & Hope) and the other two inside Farquhar Field (Montclair State & UC Santa Cruz).    

The Bulldogs report for training camp on August 19, looking to build off of a stellar 2021 season where they finished 17-3-1, 9-2-1 SCIAC, their first 17-plus win season since 2016, along with a SCIAC Tournament Title and a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Division III National Championships.   

In 2021 Redlands gained six All-SCIAC performers and the SCIAC Defensive Athlete of the Year (Arian Mogharei), but only one of those players returns, and that is Ethan Kovach (1st Team). Kovach scored five goals and had six assists as a junior. 

Not only will the Maroon and Grey have to replace five All-SCIAC members, but they also need to replace their leading scorer in Collin ChubbFertal who had 14 goals, finishing his career with 28, which tied his brother, Casey, for the 10th most in program history. Overall, they have to replace 30-of-54 goals (55.5 percent), but they return 27-of-38 assists (71 percent) thanks to their top three-assist leaders Jaime Dulle (7), Kovach (6), and Joseph Parra (5), who all return for their senior seasons. 

Other notable returners include both goalkeepers, Seth Lawrence and Aidan McSweeny. They played all 21 games and split their starts 14-6, while also combining for four shutouts. Lawrence had an 80.3% Save Percentage, a 0.88 Goal Against Average (GAA), while going 12-2-1. McSweeny was splitting time with Lawrence before an injury, but prior to that had posted a 5-1 record, a 77.4% Save Percentage, and a 1.08 Goals Against Average.
