ASHEVILLE, N.C. – Coming off its first loss of the 2021 season, the UNC Asheville men's soccer team remains on the road, visiting Radford for a Big South Clash on Thursday at 4:00 p.m.
The Bulldogs were able to strike first against the 20th-ranked Campbell Camels on Sunday (College Soccer News), as Miles Peay found Noe Varner just minutes into the game. Shortly after, Asheville would go a man down and would pay for it, ultimately falling 4-1. Leon Musial registered a career-high five saves, but was under constant pressure as the Camels totaled 22 shots with nine being on frame. The 2-1 record is the best since 2015.
