We look forward to having Deacon Nation in attendance for a great day of soccer on our campus," said head coach Bobby Muuss. "Our team will also have the incredible opportunity to play in three games during our international trip to England in March."
Wake Forest will open the spring against Southern Conference regular season champions UNCG on Friday, Feb. 25 at Bryan Park in Greensboro, N.C.
From March 4-13, the Demon Deacons will head overseas as part of an international trip to England before beginning play for the Spring Soccer Cup.

An annual showcase of some of the country's elite programs, Wake Forest will be joined by Clemson, Georgetown, Pitt, Duke, North Carolina, NC State, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Maryland for the final event of the Spring Soccer Cup.
Together, these 10 programs over the last four seasons have combined to earn 30 NCAA Tournaments bids, eight College Cup appearances and three National Championships.
