New York, New York – After an outstanding fall season last year that produced two CUNYAC CC Champions in Women's Volleyball and Men's Soccer, the BMCC Athletics department is hungry to add to those accolades and excited to announce their tryout schedule for intercollegiate athletic competition for the fall of 2023.
 
After winning their first CUNYAC Championship since 2006 and 11th in program history, the BMCC women's volleyball program begins its quest to defend its crown, holding a two-day tryout beginning on Wednesday, August 2nd, and concluding on Thursday, August 3rd. Both tryouts will be held from 6:45 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the BMCC Gymnasium.
 
After capturing their league-best 13th CUNYAC CC Men's Soccer Championship, the Panthers will begin their quest for a repeat alongside the women's soccer program with their preseason tryouts starting on Monday, August 7th, at Hamilton Metz Field in Brooklyn, New York. The two-and-a-half-hour tryout (8 a.m.- 10:30 a.m.) will go on for two weeks, wrapping up on Saturday, August 26th.
 
The Athletic Department added the department's eighth athletic program, Men's and Women's Cross County will look to build on their strong momentum during their program's inaugural season with their preseason tryouts on Thursday, August 3rd at 1 p.m. at Pier 25 (Across from BMCC).
 
All prospective student-athletes must be enrolled as full-time students (currently taking 12 credits or more in the fall semester) with above a 2.0 cumulative grade point average. 
 
Prior to trying out for one of the four athletic sports (Women's Volleyball, MSOC, WSOC, and Men's and Women's Cross Country) this fall, all participants must have a completed physical on file with the athletic department. Participants can obtain the physical examination through the BMCC athletics website. 
 
In addition, all participants must have running and workout attire, cleats/running shoes, blue shorts/grey shirts, and Soccer, Running, and Volleyball experience are preferred.
