Kickoff Scheduled For 7 P.M. On ESPN+

Greenville, S.C. – Furman men's soccer goes for its third consecutive victory on Saturday night when it opens Southern Conference play versus UNC Greensboro at UNCG Stadium in Greensboro, N.C.
 
Saturday's match is set to kickoff at 7 p.m. and will be streamed live on ESPN+. Links for the live stream and live statistics can be found on the men's soccer schedule page at FurmanPaladins.com.
 
The Paladins improved to 4-2-2 on the season with a 3-1 victory at USC Upstate on Tuesday night in their first action since downing nationally-ranked College of Charleston, 4-2, on September 17. Caleb Johnson, Landon Hill, and Ivan Agyaakwah netted goals versus the Spartans.
