PERKINSTON — The Mississippi Gulf Coast men’s soccer team begins defense of its MACCC championship Friday when the Bulldogs open conference play at Bary Thrash Field.

 

Gulf Coast entertains Hinds in a game scheduled for 7 p.m. Tickets are available at http://mgcccbulldogs.com/tickets, and the game will be streamed at https://mgcccbulldogs.com/watch.

 

The conference eliminated divisions this year, so each team will play the other 10 teams once. The MACCC champion will be determined by the regular season, who will also get a first-round bye in the Gulf South District tournament. The men’s regular-season champion will host the tournament.
