ASHEVILLE, N.C. – Due to forecasted inclement weather in the area, UNC Asheville men's soccer will now play host to Big South Conference foe Campbell at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 29, at Greenwood Field.

The match against Campbell (8-6-3, 4-2-1 Big South Conference) will serve as Senior Day for the Bulldogs. The game will also be the "Kick or Treat Match." UNC Asheville will have free candy for all fans who show up in costume as well as a free soccer scarf giveaway for all Bulldog Brigade members and costume contest participants.

The UNC Asheville men's soccer team picked up a huge 1-0 road Big South Conference win at Winthrop on Wednesday, Oct. 25.

Both teams finished the first half with seven shots each. The Bulldogs (2-14-0, 1-5-0 Big South Conference) just missed on taking a 1-0 lead at the halftime break with Dante Bova's header off a beautiful ball into the box by Joe LaCasto just going wide right to leave the score at 0-0 at intermission.

It would not take long for the Bulldogs to take the lead over Winthrop (3-11-1, 1-5-0 Big South Conference) in the second half with Colin Daughtry taking advantage of a Bova assist to give UNC Asheville the 1-0 advantage in the 46th-minute. Daughtry's flick into the open net in the first minute of the second half gave the freshman from Raleigh, N.C. the first goal of his Bulldog career.

The game-winning goal would prove to be all UNC Asheville would need in their first Big South win of the 2017 season.

UNC Asheville goalkeeper Nabil Milani made four saves in collecting his first career clean sheet between the pipes.

The Bulldogs and Eagles both finished the match with 12 shots each. Both teams had four shots on frame in the game.
