Memphis Painted Green and White
Thank you to all of the teams, fans, officials and the Mike Rose Soccer Complex and Memphis for combining to put on a great tournament! Without the teams, officials and great staff from all over the country, this tournament would not have been a success.
This tournament however belongs to Michigan State University with their sweep of the national titles.
Victory for MSU!
No wait, TWO Victories for MSU!

Biggest NIRSA/NCCS Soccer Tourney Ever!
With 95 teams competing in this year's championships, it is the largest NIRSA/NCCS Soccer tournament ever! 24 teams will play in the men's and women's championships and men's open. There are 23 teams in the women's open division.
This promises to be a great tournament!
Who will be "walking in Memphis" as winners?
One day to go!
One Day to Go!
We are getting ready for the 2012 NCCS National Soccer Championships!
In the Men's Championship, defending champion Weber State is back to defend their title. The only other semifinalist back to try and take the title away is Minnesota. Of the 16 playoff teams last year only 9 teams are back to challenge Weber State. Will this clear the way for an experienced Weber State team or will another team step up and claim a title?
In the Women's Championship, 5 time defending champions UCSB are back to defend their title. Is there anyone who can end their dynastic reign? 10 teams who qualified for the knockout stage last year are back to challenge UCSB including finalist Cal Poly and semifinalists Texas and Virginia Tech. Will the dynasty end or will UCSB win one for the other hand?
In the Men's Open, there will be a new open champion as UC-San Diego is not back. Who will win? Texas "B" is back to challenge for the crown as returning finalists. Missouri who ended up as national finalist last year may be another challenger. The field is wide open to determine our next men's open champion.
In the Women's Open, Missouri is back to defend their championship. Illinois will challenge this year as a returning semifinalist. James Madison, Salt Lake Community College, Colorado "Black" and Oregon are returning quarterfinalists. However, JMU and Salt Lake CC share a pool with Illinois and only 2 will advance. This promises to be a wonderful challenge for all teams in this division to become the Women's Open Champion.
It all starts on Thursday.
