ASHEVILLE, N.C. – The UNC Asheville men's soccer team will host High Point at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday at Greenwood Field to close out its fall season.
The Bulldogs fell last Saturday at USC Upstate 5-0 after a flurry of early goals by the Spartans. Freshman Bryan Womé led the team in shots and registered his first shot on goal in his young Bulldog career, while Leon Musial recorded five saves in net.
Scouting the Panthers
High Point stands at 6-6-3 and 4-0-3 in conference play, good for second place in the Big South. The Panthers are led by redshirt junior goalkeeper Holden Trent, who has the highest save percentage in the Big South at .733 and leads the league in shutouts at six. Junior MD Myers has also cracked the top-10 in scoring in the Big South at five goals on the year while registering the highest shots-on-goal average in the league.
Series History
The Bulldogs are 5-19-2 all-time against the Panthers, with the most recent contest coming last Spring in the Big South Semifinals, where the Bulldogs pushed nationally ranked High Point to the limit in a 1-0 loss in overtime.
Admission & COVID Protocols
Admission to Wednesday's match and all home UNC Asheville soccer matches this season are free! Gates will open one hour before kickoff at the Field Drive entrance only. Due to the prevalence of COVID in the greater Buncombe County Area, UNC Asheville Athletics asks spectators to please mask up and practice social distancing. We also encourage spectators to bring water and snacks as the concessions will be closed, but we will have food trucks (Bridge & Tunnel and Buggy Pops).
How to Follow
The game will be broadcasted on ESPN+, and live stats will be provided here.
