Hatters Visit NJIT for Key ASUN Match

Stetson men's soccer makes their first-ever visit to Newark, N.J., this weekend when the Hatters face Atlantic Sun Conference rival NJIT, 6 p.m., Saturday.
 
The Highlanders (4-4-2 overall, 1-0-0 ASUN) are in their first season of men's soccer in the ASUN after playing last season in the Sun Belt Conference. NJIT has lost two straight entering play on Saturday, and the Highlanders will be playing their fourth game in 11 days when they face the Hatters.
 
Stetson (3-5-2, 1-1-0) suffered a 3-1 loss at FAU on Tuesday. Junior Luke Ferreira scored his team-leading fourth goal and ranks among league leaders in goals, assists and points.
 
Fans have several ways to follow Saturday's action. The match will be streamed live and live stats will also be available. Fans can also follow the team's official Twitter feed @StetsonMSoccer for in-game updates.
 
Series Info
Saturday's game will be the first meeting between Stetson and NJIT. The Highlanders joined the ASUN prior to the 2015-16 athletic year, but men's soccer was obligated to continue playing in the Sun Belt last season and became an ASUN sport this year.
