Founded in 2001, the soccer program at Patrick Henry College fills a crucial place in student life at PHC. For some, playing soccer provides a necessary athletic outlet amid the rigors of academics. For others, no semester is complete without cheering for our Sentinels in blue on the soccer field. Ben Purnell is the men's soccer coach.
