2025 Season Tickets

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – North Florida women’s soccer and head coach Eric Faulconer released the 2025 schedule on Thursday ahead of the 30th season in program history. 
 
“We are looking forward to building on the momentum of a successful 2024 campaign this fall,” Faulconer said. “The non-conference portion presents an immediate challenge. We open at NCAA Tournament participant Howard, which will be a very good test right off the bat. We will take on another NCAA Tournament program in our home opener against FIU and follow that stretch with consecutive SEC opponents on the road at Florida and Georgia before a home match with another Power Four opponent UCF prior to the start of ASUN Conference action.”

“The divisional format that the conference implemented will introduce a new challenge. Playing matches against the same teams in close proximity of each other will make things interesting. We were in the mix last fall for our program’s first ASUN Regular Season title and believe that we have a team that can make another run this season.”

The 19-match slate includes nine non-conference and 10 ASUN Conference matches with eight at Hodges Stadium and 11 on the road.

The ASUN Conference announced Tuesday that it will transition to a divisional schedule format in 2025. Under the new format, North Florida is one of six teams in the Graphite Division, which includes West Georgia, Queens, Jacksonville, Stetson and FGCU. North Florida will face each division opponent twice in that order in a snake-style schedule in which it will repeat the same slate in reverse order to compose the 10-match conference slate. 
 
Marquee non-conference matches include road trips to Florida and Georgia in the early portion of non-conference, in addition to a home date with UCF. North Florida will face four teams – Howard, FIU, Georgia and Lipscomb – that advanced to the 2024 NCAA Tournament. 
 
The season kicks off with consecutive road matches at Howard on Aug. 14 and Campbell on Aug. 17. In the midst of five of its initial six matches on the road, North Florida hosts FIU for its home opener on Aug. 21. 

North Florida starts one of its two three-game road stints at Florida on Aug. 24, Georgia on Aug. 28 and former conference opponent Kennesaw State on Aug. 31. North Florida closes out its non-conference road slate at College of Charleston on Sept. 7.
 
North Florida will battle Georgia Southern on Sept. 4. The Eagles are a familiar opponent that the Ospreys have faced each of the last three seasons.

The non-conference home finale comes against UCF on Sept. 11, which will start a four-match homestand that runs into conference action. North Florida looks to defeat a Power Four program in consecutive seasons after it defeated Miami (Fla.) in its opener in 2024.
 
ASUN Conference action starts at home against West Georgia on Sept. 18 and Queens on Sept. 21. The longest home stretch of the season will conclude with the first of two River City Rumble matches against crosstown rival Jacksonville on Sept. 28.

It will be the first time that North Florida and Jacksonville will play each other more than once in the regular season since the condensed spring 2021 season.

The initial slate of conference matches ends at Stetson on Oct. 2 and Florida Gulf Coast on Oct. 5. The next stretch flips for the second half of the conference slate with a quick rematch against FGCU on Oct. 9 followed with the home finale against Stetson on Oct. 12. 

North Florida hosts Jacksonville Oct. 19. The Ospreys have defeated their rival in seven of the last 10 matches. The regular season concludes at Queens on Oct. 22 and West Georgia on Oct. 25. 
 
The 2025 ASUN Women’s Soccer Championship will take place on Oct. 30-Nov. 9 with matches hosted by the higher seed in each of the four-round postseason tournament.
