Carolina University's Men's Soccer team claimed the South Regional Championship after defeating Warner University in a match held in Florida. The Bruins secured their victory with a 3-2 win.

The game saw Carolina take an early lead when Owen Vaughn scored from a penalty kick following a foul by Warner. Although the Lions equalized shortly afterward, Vaughn converted another penalty before halftime to restore the Bruins' lead to 2-1.

Warner University tied the game again at 2-2 early in the second half. However, Carolina's defense remained resilient as they sought to regain control. The decisive moment came in the 73rd minute when Zaid Santo, assisted by Nathan Rue, scored what would be the winning goal for Carolina.

Following this win, Carolina University will advance to Nationals in Florida as the top seed. They are set to compete against Asbury University on December 2nd at Austin-Tindall Sports Complex in Kissimmee, FL.
