Entering the final few games of regular-season play, both the Kentucky men’s soccer and Kentucky women’s soccer teams sit on the brink of postseason play.For the women’s soccer team, it’s pretty simple heading into the last match of the season what the Cats need to do: beat Vanderbilt on Friday at 7 p.m. or go home. That’s all there is to it. A loss or tie to the Commodores (4-4-2 in conference play) would keep Kentucky (3-5-2 in league play) out of the eight-team tournament. A win puts the Cats in the Southeastern Conference Tournament, and UK could finish as high as the fifth seed based on a number of scenarios. For UK, although Friday is the regular-season finale, it’s essentially the start of a single-elimination tournament.It’s not that simple for the men’s team given the schedule left. If the season were to end today, Kentucky, currently sitting in fourth place in the Conference USA standings, would be in the six-team tournament. However, with three games left to play – two of three of which are against ranked opponents – the men have their work cut out for them.UK enters Wednesday’s match with No. 22 Tulsa with eight points in league play. Tulsa and South Carolina are tied for the final two spots of the conference tournament with seven points. UK has to play both, so both matches will play significant factors in the final standings.Meanwhile, UAB is the first team out of the tournament as of Tuesday with six points. FIU and Memphis round out the conference with three points and one point, respectively, so both figure to be out of the race at this point. That means it looks like it will be a four-team race for the final three spots in the C-USA Tournament between Kentucky, Tulsa, South Carolina and UAB. This is just strictly a guess, but with three games to play, it looks like it will take 10 or 11 points to get in.Stay tuned over the next week and a half to see how the races shake out.
