The Argonauts will face Wingate on Saturday afternoon

INDIANAPOLIS - The UWF men's soccer team was selected as the No. 6 seed in the 2023 NCAA Division II Men's Soccer Championship as announced by the committee on Monday.

The Argonauts will play a second round game at No. 3 seed Wingate on Saturday at 3 p.m. eastern time. The game will be played at Pride Park on the Wingate campus.

UWF is 11-1-5 on the season and coming off winning the program's 11th Gulf South Conference Championship last weekend in Huntsville, Ala. The Argos went 5-1-5 in the GSC regular season.

The Argos rank seventh in the country with 2.82 goals per game and have scored 48 on the season. Defensively, UWF is 18th with an .824 goals against average and compiled eight shutouts.
