The 1866–67 Carroll Pioneers men's soccer team represented Carroll University during the . The program was retroactively declared national champions by the American Soccer History Archives.[1][2][3] This was by the virtue of being the only known college with known results during this time.

The club played two matches during this time, both against the local town club of Waukesha. Both matches were played on the County Fairgrounds, and the first match was won by Carroll while the second was won by Waukesha.
