The Vaquero\u2019s kicked off their 2021 season on August 26th against the University of Central Arkansas. Since then, the Vaquero\u2019s have moved to 5-3 on the season so far and are 1-0 in conference play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaquero Radio sat down with Men\u2019s Soccer Head Coach Bryheem Hancock ahead of Thursday\u2019s game.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In regards to the fall season so far, coach Hancock had this to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been very good in the fact of getting information for what things we need to continue to work on with the group. What things we do really well as a group, and now obviously we\u2019re navigating through conference play.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a win over California Baptist University on Sunday, Men\u2019s Soccer is now 2-0 in conference play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the Vaquero\u2019s games have been decided by a score of 1 point. Coach Hancock had this to say about the close matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo, I think the majority of games we\u2019ve scored more than one goal. Which, in soccer, is one of the hardest things to do. To score multiple goals in a match.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think defensively it\u2019s been the biggest thing. Obviously we got our first shutout last weekend. And that\u2019s something we focus in on after non-conference play. To get a shut-out obviously is a reward for the work the guys have put in defensively.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before getting a win this past Sunday over Cal Baptist, who are 6-2-2 on the season, coach Hancock had this to say about going into the match against the Lancer\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA team now that can qualify for the conference tournament. A team that did really well in the league in the springtime, would\u2019ve been in the conference tournament if they were eligible last spring. So we expect two very hard matches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vaquero\u2019s have a match this Friday, October 8th against the US Air Force Academy. The game will be held in Cadet Soccer Stadium in Air Force Academy, CO 7 p.m. The game can be streamed through the WAC Digital Network or ESPN+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This is Aaron Vasquez with Vaquero Radio.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mens\u2019 Soccer at UTRGV is almost at its halfway mark on the season.
