The team is best known for being one of the most dominant pre-regulation college soccer programs in the United States, retroactively winning ASHA and IFRA pre-regulation national championships. In total, the Cadets won 16 consecutive national championships between 1890 and 1905. The 1905 title was shared with Haverford College by the Intercollegiate Soccer Football League, which was the governing body of college soccer in the United States from 1904 until 1958 (the NCAA began governing college soccer in 1959).

Since at least the 1930s the program was downgraded to a high school boy's school program, where they would win 9 state championships in Missouri.

gollark: That is denied by the standard.
gollark: I mean, do you want me to use the *unofficial* ones, palaiologososos?
