(2026 schedule)

Goldey-Beacom looks to continue taking steps toward once again reaching the paramount of the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference and will do so against what always is a challenging schedule.

The squad plays three of its first four matches at home, starting August 27 against Pace, continuing three days later vs. the District of Columbia and closing September 9 against Pitt-Johnstown. The lone road game in that stretch is September 5 at Bloomsburg.

A four-game road trip from September 12-23 includes the league opener on the 19th at Caldwell.

Homecoming & Lightning Family Weekend features a contest October 3 against Dominican (NY). The weekend's events include opportunities for alums to come back on campus to reunite with many friends and also see the many changes that many who continue to be part of the family help ignite. It also will give an opportunity for parents to come on campus and spend time with their kids as part of an atmosphere filled with festivities and fun.

A visit October 7 to Wilmington is the first of three league opponents who last season played in the NCAA Tournament. GBC welcomes Post on October 10 and visits reigning CACC champion Bridgeport on the 17th.

The regular season ends October 27 at Georgian Court.

Each CACC quarterfinal and semifinal game will be held at the higher seed. The quarterfinals are October 31, the semifinals are November 3 and the final is the 7th in Newark, DE.

Senior Derrick Muhire (Kigali, Rwanda) has been a warrior in his four years with the Lightning, working his way back from injury after missing the 2023 campaign to produce two highly productive years at midfield. Possessing great ability and a strong mental fortitude, Muhire started all 17 games he played last season after his 18 matches with 13 starts in 2024.

Senior Jamel Yasin (Sewell, NJ) is back in goal after playing in 14 games last season with 13 starts. He closed last season sixth in the CACC with 67 saves, which included 10 at perennial-power Post.

Sophomore midfielder Matt Porto (Wilmington, DE) is one of two from last season who started all 18 matches. His solid play enabled him to be one who was rarely substituted and one who solidified the unit.

Sophomore midfielder Trevor Sullivan (Camden, DE) returns looking for more playing time after competing in 11 games last season with two starts. Senior Josh Jensen (Johannesburg, South Africa) last year started all 17 games he competed and helped a defense allow no more than one goal in five matches.
