Elms is entering their fifth season with the GNAC, when asked about competing and the outlook for the upcoming season Coach Mike Wysocki stated that "we have a tremendous group of young men this year. The new players have integrated themselves immediately and there is a true family atmosphere in the locker room. We have never been a team that lets outside noise into our camp, so the polls are not something we are really focused on. Our goals are clear, our expectations are clear, and this group is going to be a fun one to watch. We can not wait to get out on the field and show the league who we are".

The Blazers finished their season with an overall record of 3-13-2, with a 2-10-2 conference record. With missing the postseason last year, the Elms Men's Soccer team is ready for their upcoming season.

Elms will start the season at home on Friday, August 29th against Fitchburg State University at 4 pm at Leary Field to kick off a three game homestand and will then travel to SUNY Cobleskill on Saturday, September 6th for their first road contest. They will then host Lasell University for their conference opener on Saturday, September 13th at 2 pm.

The 2025 GNAC Tournament will begin on Saturday, November 1st for the First Round of the tournament leading up to the Championship Series which will be held on Saturday, November 8th in which the winning team will have a chance to qualify into the 2025 NCAA Division III Men's Soccer Tournament.
