DAVIDSON, N.C. — Coming off a season-opening win Thursday against Gardner-Webb, Davidson hits the road for the first time this weekend with a trip down Interstate 77 to face Winthrop Sunday afternoon in women's soccer.
The Matchup ...
Davidson (1-0, 0-0 A-10) takes on its second straight Big South opponent, facing the Winthrop Eagles (8-9-1, 4-6-0 Big South last year) in Rock Hill, S.C., at Eagle Field for a 1 p.m. contest.
Coach Denton's Thoughts on the Upcoming Game ...
"Winthrop will be a very tough game. It will be a physical battle and our group has to be ready to compete from the first to the last minute. It will be another test for our group on the road after a tough battle Thursday night vs. Gardner Webb. Winthrop will be fresh, as this game is there season opener and I am sure they will be extra motivated to look to get off to a wining start at home."
