Marquette, MI, October 13, 2026 —
The Northern Michigan University Wildcats men’s soccer team has fallen to third place in the GLIAC standings after two losses, leaving the Marquette-based team with four games remaining to try to return to the top spot.
Two of the remaining games are home matches against current co-leaders Roosevelt and Saginaw Valley State. Those matchups give Northern Michigan an opportunity to face both teams ahead of it in the standings as the regular-season schedule approaches its end.
The Wildcats’ recent slide follows the two defeats, but the available information does not identify the opponents, scores or dates of those games. It also does not specify Northern Michigan’s current record, the point gap between the teams, or the dates of the remaining fixtures.
With four games left, the standings could still change. Northern Michigan’s route back to first place includes the home contests against Roosevelt and Saginaw Valley State, which are listed as co-leaders. The details provided do not indicate whether the Wildcats have other remaining games against teams currently above them.
No information was provided about injuries, lineup changes, coaching comments or the circumstances of the two losses. The next results will determine whether Northern Michigan can make up ground in the GLIAC standings before its schedule concludes.
