All three matches with be played on historic Shellenberger Field on the campus of University of Lynchburg in Lynchburg, Va. Get directions to the field here. The field is named after legendary and hall of fame head coach Bill Shellenberger. Coach Shellenberger brought soccer to campus in 1954. He led his teams to 31 consecutive winning seasons (1956 to 1987), setting a record of 371 wins, 167 losses, and 48 ties. He was the recipient of soccer's three top national awards, the first coach in America to be so honored. He was inducted into eight halls of fame, named Coach of the Year 28 times, and recognized in 1991 by the Virginia General Assembly for his "Unparalleled Record of Achievement."

University of Lynchburg named Shellenberger Field in the coach's honor in 1990, shortly after his retirement in 1989. Former students established the William H. Shellenberger Scholarship Fund "to honor a former professor, coach, mentor, and friend."
