The Drexel Dragons men's soccer team represents Drexel University.[1] The team is a member of the Colonial Athletic Association of the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

In 1958 with a 12-0-0 record, the team was awarded the National Championship by the Intercollegiate Soccer Football Association of America, then the governing body of men’s college soccer.[2] This occurred the year before the NCAA instituted a playoff system and so Drexel's championship is not officially recognized today by the NCAA.
