Players from Ohio
Where Ohio players go
724 men from Ohio are on a published college soccer roster, and 69% of them play for a school inside Ohio.
Out of state, the most common destinations are Pennsylvania, Indiana and Kentucky.
For scale: 17,302 boys played high-school soccer in Ohio in 2024-25.
Counted off the hometowns listed on college rosters (read Sep 11, 2026; the 2026-27 squad for most programs, last season’s where a school had not posted a new one). A headcount of who is playing, not a rate — no one publishes how many of a state’s high-school players go on. High-school figure: NFHS participation survey, 2024-25. NFHS survey (PDF).
