Notre Dame, Ind. — The Holy Cross College men's soccer team saw its season come to a heartbreaking close on Wednesday night, falling 3–0 to Judson University in the CCAC Quarterfinal at Saints Field.
The Saints battled with intensity from start to finish, creating promising opportunities and showing tremendous resolve in front of a strong home crowd. Goalkeeper Logan Kelly delivered a standout performance, making nine saves, including a massive penalty stop in the 4th minute to keep the match level early.
Holy Cross generated 14 shots and seven corners but couldn't find the finishing touch, while Judson capitalized on key moments—scoring once late in the first half and twice in the second.
Despite the final score, the Saints showed heart, discipline, and an unwavering competitive spirit that defined their season.
After this result Holy Cross College Athletics would like to thank the 2025 men's soccer seniors:

Thank you, seniors, for your dedication, leadership, and the legacy you leave at Holy Cross. Your commitment has elevated Saints soccer both on and off the field.
A special thank-you as well to Head Coach Omar Gallo and the entire coaching staff for guiding this group through a season filled with growth, resilience, and memorable moments. We look forward to seeing what you and the rest of the Holy Cross Men's Team will do next season.
