The Manitowoc Lincoln boys’ soccer program will travel to Ludington, Michigan, to play this season.
This is the fourth year of the exchange, with the Ships hosting Ludington last year.
Head Coach Matt Kadow joined the On the Line Podcast, where he voiced his excitement for the trip on the S.S. Badger.
“They’ve bested us the first three years,” he explained. “That’s another goal that the boys have set. They said they want to come home on the Badger with that trophy this year.”
This exchange program was started by Kadow’s predecessor, Chris Callen, who wanted to do something new and unique for the boys soccer program.
The entire boys soccer program will get the opportunity to travel as there will be both JV and varsity games that take place.
Both teams watched a Ships football game after their games last year, with Coach Kadow saying, “The camaraderie, celebrating the sport, and the Ludington guys got with our players in the student section. Some of the Ludington players got on top of the cheer pyramid and down on the track. So it ends up being this really fun event, but also highly competitive.”
The Manitowoc Lincoln boys soccer team will travel across Lake Michigan to take on Ludington on Thursday, August 29.
