CINCINNATI, Ohio -- The University of Cincinnati has earned an at-large bid to the 2006 NCAA Men's Soccer Tournament. The Bearcats (11-5-2) will travel to Evanston, Ill., to take on Northwestern (11-7-0) in the first round on Friday, Nov. 10, at 2 p.m. ET.
"Obviously, we're happy to get in," head coach Hylton Dayes said. "We felt good going in, but until you see your name pop up, you never know."
Cincinnati will make its third NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. The Bearcats lost in the first round at Butler, 1-0, in overtime in 1998. UC played Kentucky to a scoreless draw before falling on penalty kicks in 2003.
