Furman’s head soccer coach, Doug Allison, recently announced his plans to retire next season. The 16th-seeded Paladins earned a bid to the NCAA College Cup, or the final four, while boasting the nation’s longest unbeaten streak at 14 games. That run was broken when the Paladins lost to Washington 3-1 on December 12. However, Allison remains optimistic about the team’s future.
