DAVIDSON WILDCATS (3-11-1, 1-4-1 ATLANTIC 10)
Matt Spear's Record: 0-1-0
DAVIDSON, N.C. – Davidson will conclude the home portion of its 2016 men's soccer schedule with a 6 p.m. "Senior Day" contest against Atlantic 10 foe VCU Saturday evening at Alumni Stadium.
Prior to the game, Davidson will honor senior tri-captains Christian Fechter, Andrew Kenneson and Maxi Pragnell.
The Wildcats, who have played in three straight overtime contests, enter 3-11-1 overall and 1-4-1 in league play following a heartbreaking 3-2 (ot) setback at Fordham last weekend.
Two of Fordham's three goals came via penalty kicks, while Jon Creel and Christian Fechter provided Davidson's strikes in the loss.
Pragnell continues to lead the Atlantic 10 in goals with seven, while ranking third among league leaders in total points with 16.
VCU, which edged the Wildcats 1-0 a year ago in Richmond, comes in 5-8-3 and 3-2-1 in league play. The Rams have dropped three of their last four, including a 4-0 blanking at the hands of William & Mary on Wednesday.
Jorge Herranz paces VCU's offense with five goals, six assists and 16 total points, while Luc Fatton leads the club in goals with six.
In order to keep their Atlantic 10 Tournament hopes alive, the Wildcats must win its remaining two contests.
Up Next
Davidson will conclude the regular season with a 7 p.m. kickoff at George Mason on Saturday, Nov. 10.
Coach Spear's Pregame Comments
"We celebrate three tremendous young men that are true leaders, impact players, and prime examples of the team's foundation of Brotherhood.
These three demonstrate the balance of the Davidson student-athlete model as they strive for excellence, experience, and friendship.
The team will be galvanized by Senior Night, our final regular season home game, and another opportunity to play a talented team.
I want them to go for peak performance and to relish their bond, the competition, and the night."
