Manhattan Christian College Athletics and Thunder Men's Soccer are excited to reveal the 2026 men's soccer schedule. The Thunder are now under the leadership of first year head coach, Scott Blake, after coming off a 0-11-1 campaign in 2025. The Thunder would play six matches before having to cancel the rest of the season due to roster limitations.

The Thunder will play a scrimmage on August 29th before the regular season kicks off on September 5th with a home match against NAIA opponent, Bethany College. The Sons of Thunder will play 15 regular season matches including a full Midwest Christian College Conference and NCCAA Central Region schedule. This season's squad will play Bethany College twice with the rest being NCCAA opponents with Ecclesia College and Kansas Christian College being NCCAA Division I teams.

The Midwest Christian College Conference Tournament will be hosted at Emmaus University in Dubuque, Iowa starting on October 29th, followed by the Central Region Tournament, which will be in Kansas City, Missouri, on November 5th. Coach Blake is determined to put a quality team on the field, improve on last season's results, and ready to work towards an opportunity to play at the NCCAA National Tournament. The National Tournament will be held from November 16th-21st in Kissimmee, Florida​.

Tickets for the 2026 season will be posted to the SidelineTix website and app later this summer. To purchase tickets, fans can visit www.mccthunder.com and click the "Get Tickets" tab.
