Men’s Soccer Facing Two Important Matchups

The Johnson County Community College men’s soccer team is preparing for two important matchups this week. The Cavaliers will host Central Community College-Columbus on Tuesday, Oct. 7 at 5:30 p.m., followed by a home game against Neosho County Community College on Saturday, Oct. 11 at 7:00 p.m. Both contests will take place in Overland Park as part of the 2025–26 regular season schedule.

Central CC-Columbus is known for a disciplined, defensive style that usually often forces close, low-scoring matches. Neosho County, meanwhile, brings a faster-paced attack, with quick transitions that can test opposing defenses.

Fans can follow live stats and stream the games through the JCCC Athletics website, which offers updates on rosters, results, and conference standings. With both games carrying implications for conference momentum, these matchups are shaping up to be must-watch events for Cavaliers supporters.
