CHARLOTTE, N.C. (theACC.com) - Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Soccer's Decision Day comes on Friday, October 31, with the final seven league matches of the regular season.

ACC Network broadcasts the last contest of the regular season, with an 8 p.m. clash between rivals Duke and North Carolina.

Heading into Friday, four teams still have a shot at at least a share of the ACC regular-season title: Stanford (16 points), UVA (15), NC State (14) and Clemson (13). Stanford controls its destiny and can win the regular-season crown outright with a victory at California.

The 2025 ACC Men's Soccer Championship begins on Wednesday, November 5, with first-round matches at campus sites. The No. 1 seed earns a first-round bye.
