Asheville (0-1-0) hopes to even its worksheet on the young season but will face a tough test against a solid Catamount (1-0-0) club that already owns a road victory in the young season. WCU downed Campbell last weekend, 2-1. The Bulldogs lost their opening match of the season to ETSU on Sunday, 4-1.
First-year coach Michelle Demko looks for improvement with her young team on Friday.
"I know this is a rivalry game, but we need to stay focused for 90 minutes and execute our game-plan," stated Demko. "We're looking to get better in all phases of the game and avoid any fundamental breakdowns."
The teams tied last year, 0-0 in a match played at Western Carolina. Asheville is looking for its first win over the Catamounts since a 3-0 triumph in Cullowhee back in the 2004 season. WCU is 4-0-1 vs. the Bulldogs since the 2004 campaign.
