The UNLV men's soccer team will be hosting a 3v3 tournament on 4th of July weekend. I've played 3v3 and believe me it's a lot of fun, really fast paced. The tournament will host kids in the age groups of u8, u-12, u-14, and u-16.

 UNLV sophmore Salvador Bernal was named to NSCAA All-Far West Region Third Team. He is the first rebel to get regional honors in over three years. And to put icing on top of an already sweet cake, he was also named to the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation First team in November. So congrats to Bernal!

The men's soccer team will be playing in a 3-team scrimmage this weeked at UNLV. They will be playing against Dixie State and the Colorado College of Mines

Video- UNLV mens soccer vs Colorado Rapids

Here is the footage I promised of UNLV men's soccer game when I covered their scrimmage against the Colorado Rapids Reserve professional team. This video aired on local Las Vegas TV this past saturday for UNLV's sports show GAME ON.

So National Signing Day has passed and they finally released the new recruits for the men's soccer team. There are 6 new players including 2 Las Vegas natives.

3.Kevin Partida (Northen Nevada) Midfielder
4.Julien Dragomir (Phoenix, AZ) Forward
5. Brad Holub (Arvada, CO) Goalkeeper
6.Mitch Myers (Orondo, WA) Midfielder

Good luck to these gentleman when they join UNLV's Rebels in the fall. I included their positions but keep in mind Coach Ryerson may chose to put these guys in different positions depending on where they fit into the team.

The UNLV mens soccer team played the Colorado Rapids Reserve team last night (2/14) for valentines day. UNLV lost 4-0 but the game was very physical and intense. The boys did a good job of keeping up with the semi-professional players who were in town because the Colorado Rapids will play the CHIVAS USA tonight at Sam Boyd Stadium.

UNLV coach said the boys were disappointed to have lost but this gives them great experience because a lot of his players have dreams of becoming professional soon.

I filmed the game and some interviews with players UNLV coach and the rapids reserve public relations specialist. After I cut the tape I will post for you all to see!!
