The Penn State Behrend men's soccer team will head to No. 15 Johns Hopkins University for the first round of the NCAA Division III Tournament.

Behrend (10-6-4) earned the AMCC automatic bid with a 5-4 penalty-kicks victory over Alfred State College in the conference championship this past Saturday.

This marks the 11^th AMCC title and seventh NCAA Tournament selection for the Lions, first since 2019.

Johns Hopkins (12-3-4) registered an automatic bid by winning the Centennial Conference Championship with a 5-3 penalty-kicks victory against Muhlenberg on Saturday.

The Blue Jays will also host No. 21 Washington & Lee (13-3-4) and Otterbein (12-6-3) in the four-team pod. The winners this Saturday will face-off against each other on Sunday.

This will be the first matchup in program history between Behrend and Johns Hopkins.
