This study evaluated dietary intake patterns of NCAA Division III soccer players compared to recommended levels. NCAA Division III soccer players ( = 75). Actual dietary intake was determined by the analysis of a 3-day food record. Results indicate that total energy, carbohydrate, and dietary fiber intake was significantly below the recommended levels. In addition, added sugar and total fat consumption were significantly above recommended levels. Potassium, magnesium, and vitamin D levels were consumed in levels significantly below the recommended levels. Sodium, iron, and vitamin C were consumed in significantly higher levels than the recommended target. Female athletes had significantly higher intakes of added sugar, saturated fat and vitamin C compared to male athletes. Female athletes had significantly lower intakes of calcium, potassium, sodium, iron, magnesium and vitamin D compared to male athletes. Based on the results of the present study, increased efforts should be put into development of nutrition education programs for NCAA Division III athletes.
