The soccer team achieved immediate success with a record of 12 wins 6 losses and 1 tie. Since then Marist has had a number of successful years including in 2004. The team won four home games on its way to the MAAC Championship and NCAA tournament. The Red Foxes then repeated as MAAC Champions the following season and were admitted into the NCAA tournament for 2 consecutive years.[2]
