STORRS, Conn. – The UConn men's soccer team looks to rebound after dropping a pair of top 25 contests in Bloomington, Ind. to No. 24 Notre Dame and No. 6 Indiana. The Huskies welcome Dartmouth to Joseph J. Morrone Stadium on Saturday, Sept 8 at 7 p.m.
The Big Green enter Saturday's contest 0-2 on the year but started the season No. 22 in the United Soccer Coaches Poll. Dartmouth began its season as a part of the same Adidas/IU Credit Union Classic that the Huskies played in. The Big Green lost both matches to Indiana and Notre Dame.
The Huskies sport a 2-0 record at Morrone Stadium with victories against Lehigh and Niagara during the first week of the season. Abdou Mbacke Thiam leads the team with three points (1 goal, 1 assist) while Robin Lapert and Felix Metzler have each tallied a goal.
UConn holds a 24-16-3 edge over the Big Green all-time with the last three meetings all going into double overtime.
During Saturday's match the Huskies will wear gold laces in support of pediatric cancer awareness for their Go 4 The Goal game.
