Quotable
"We are looking forward to playing at home," UNC Asheville men's soccer head coach Mathes Mennell said. "VMI is an institution that we certainly have a lot of respect for. They are going to very disciplined, they are going to be very organized and they are they are going to be very committed to the cause. Coach Bonelli has done a fantastic job at what I quite honestly think is one of the toughest environments in the country because of the restrictions and all that the student-athletes there have to do, but he's done a great job.
"They've given teams fits and they've been in a lot of games. They just like us are in the middle of their conference run. It's a team that's going to provide a great challenge for us, but it's an opportunity for us to play at home and hopefully string together a good performance under the lights at Greenwood Field."
