Bowling Green State University first fielded a men's soccer team in 1965. The team initially competed as an independent.

From 1986 through 1992, the Falcons were a member of the Mid-America Soccer Conference, winning the season championship in 1987, 1989, 199, and 1992 and the conference's only tournament championship in 1991.

Since 1993, BGSU has competed as a member of the Mid-American Conference. They won the regular season title in 1986, 2000, 2002, and 2020. The Falcons won the first three MAC Tournament championships in 1985–87, and have advanced to the title game more than five times since then.

The BGSU school colors are burnt orange and seal brown. In 1914, Professor Leon Winslow of the industrial arts department reportedly saw the color combination on a woman's hat while riding the interurban trolley to Toledo and recommended to the board of trustees that those colors be adopted.


Stadium


The Falcons play at Mickey Cochrane Field (Cochrane Soccer Stadium) on the BGSU campus. The stadium seats 700 with portable seating for 800 more available and standing room for hundreds more.[5][4]
