Posted at 2:26 PMh in Sports by

The American Midwest Conference recently released its first preseason polls of 2020 in soccer.

WOMEN’S SOCCER

Central Baptist College was picked to finish sixth out of the eight teams competing during the fall season.

CBC is coming off a 2-15-1 season in Lance Gordon’s first year in charge of the program. The Mustangs were able to make history last season in conference play, defeating Hannibal-LaGrange for the first time in the program’s history and winning at Williams Baptist as well. The team was in contention for an AMC tournament berth until the final game of last season, an unfortunate golden goal loss to Stephens.

Women’s soccer kicks off its season at 2 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 8, against Central Christian College at Centennial Soccer Park. For an upcoming season preview and to keep up with the women’s soccer team throughout the entire season, be sure to like Central Baptist College Athletics on Facebook and follow @gocbcmustangs on Twitter and Instagram.

MEN’S SOCCER

The CBC men’s soccer team was picked to finish in a tie for fifth out of the seven teams competing during the fall season.

CBC missed the AMC tournament for the second season in a row last year after going 5-11-1 overall and 2-8-1 in the AMC in Lance Gordon’s first season in charge of the program. The Mustangs did win their final two games of the season, however, beating St. Louis College of Pharmacy 1-0 before dispatching the now departed Freed-Hardeman 3-2 in the final game of the season.

Men’s soccer kicks off its season at noon Tuesday, Sept. 8, at Centennial Soccer Park against Central Christian College. 

Live stats and video will be available, and you can find further information about the game by liking Central Baptist College Athletics on Facebook and following @gocbcmustangs on Twitter and Instagram.
