The opening round of the 2020-21 NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer Championship is complete as four teams advanced to the second round. On Thursday, April 29, the four teams to move on were American, St. Francis Brooklyn, Omaha and Monmouth.

St. Francis Brooklyn won on a golden goal in double overtime as American advanced against Jacksonville 5-4 in penalty kicks.

The match with the most interest locally came later in the evening when Monmouth overcame an early 1-0 deficit to Bowling Green with two second half goals to advance to the second round, where they’ll face Pitt.

Here are the complete results from Thursday’s action:

Meanwhile, back here in Pittsburgh, the second overall seeded Panthers completed another training session before they depart for North Carolina for Sunday’s match vs Monmouth.

The rest of the field awaits in the second round, which begins on Sunday, May 2. Second-round matchups begin at 12 p.m. EDT. You can view the interactive bracket here and the printable bracket here. (Courtesy NCAA.com)
