Men's Soccer hosts Southern Nazarene Wednesday; travels to Rogers State Saturday

TAHLEQUAH – Northeastern State men's soccer hosts Southern Nazarene on Wednesday before making the short trip to Claremore on Saturday to face Rogers State. The RiverHawks (1-6, 0-2 GAC/MIAA) will seek to stop a three-game skid in which they have been limited to two goals despite averaging seven shots on goal during that stretch.

Carter Adams leads NSU with eight shots on target and six points, coming from two goals and two assists. Miguel Carrasquinho, who scored on September 10 at UT Dallas, has taken a team-high 18 shots this season.

Southern Nazarene (5-2, 2-0 GAC/MIAA) visits Tahlequah riding a three-game winning streak, having started league play with home wins over Harding and Ouachita Baptist. This matchup is one of the longest-running for NSU, dating back to the team's first season in 1981. SNU leads the all-time series 39-22-3, and Northeastern State has an 11-17-2 record at home against them.

Rogers State (5-2-1, 1-1 GAC/MIAA) opened league play with a split, losing to Fort Hays State and defeating Newman. RSU has a 3-1 home record and will not play again until Saturday's game against the RiverHawks. Northeastern State trails the series 11-4-3 and is 2-5-1 at Soldier Field. In their last six meetings, each team has won once.

Both games are scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
