Overview
Stockton Men's Soccer secured 10 wins and qualified as the No. 2 seed for the NJAC Tournament in 2025, finishing with a 10-5-5 record. The team finished with a .500 record or better for the seventh consecutive season and reached double digits in wins for the third time in the last four years.

Highlights
  • Uche Wokocha became the first Osprey ever to receive the NJAC Midfielder of the Year accolade since the award was created in 2007. Wokocha earned his third straight all-conference selection after NJAC Honorable Mention in 2023 and NJAC Second Team in 2024.
  • Wokocha had his best offensive season in four years at Stockton, setting career highs with five goals and four assists for 14 points while controlling the midfield. The senior compiled 10 points during a four-game point streak from October 1-11.
  • Ernst Louisius led the team and finished fourth in the NJAC with 10 goals. The forward also dished one assist for a team-high 21 points, which was tied for fifth in the conference. Louisius started fast, with six goals and an assist in Stockton's first eight games. He received all-conference and all-region honors for the second straight year.
  • Aiden Hoenisch rebounded after missing the 2024 season due to injury. In addition to scoring five goals, Hoenisch tied for fourth in the NJAC with a team-high seven assists and tied for ninth with 17 points. He was chosen all-conference for the third time in his career.
  • Noah Jones, Dawson Joseph, Nico Calambas and Kieran Sundermann each received all-conference recognition for their play on defense. Jones, Joseph and Calambas all collected the accolades for the second time while Sundermann snagged his first.
  • Jones joined Wokocha and Hoenisch as the three Ospreys who started every game. Sundermann finished second on the team with five assists while Calambas scored two goals and Joseph netted one.
  • Junior netminder Brady Bartletta started all 14 games that he played before going down with an injury on October 11. Bartletta finished third in the NJAC in goals against average (1.01) to go with 39 saves and three shutouts in 1,162 minutes.
  • Kyle Birmingham came on late in net for the Ospreys, starting the final six games of the season, all against NJAC foes. During a run of over 280 scoreless minutes, Birmingham posted three consecutive shutouts. He was voted NJAC Honorable Mention after finishing with 23 saves and a 0.56 goals against average in 638 minutes played.
  • Stockton received valuable offensive contributions from freshman William Lynch, who tallied five goals and one assist for 11 points in his rookie year, and Chris Krall with three goals. Thomas Trimble (2 goals), Joseph A. Carbone (1 goal, 2 assists) and freshman Christian Pereira (3 assists) also chipped in offensively.
  • Owen Sugra was a key contributor in the midfield who started all 18 games in which he played. Sugra was one of seven Ospreys who made at least 18 starts. Aidan Pereira returned from an offseason injury in October and gave Stockton a boost at midfield with two assists in seven games played.
