Stetson men's soccer returns to the Athletic Training Center on Wednesday as the Hatters host long-time foe Georgia Southern in a non-conference affair. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Stetson (3-3-0) split a pair of road games last weekend, securing a 2-0 win at Winthrop before suffering a 2-0 loss at USC Upstate. Chris Degance and Finn Busmann each scored goals against Winthrop, while Lute Lillo-Portero turned in a clean sheet in goal.
 
Georgia Southern (3-1-0) is off to a fast start. The Eagles joined the Hatters on the season's opening weekend by also defeating UNCW and College of Charleston at the Aaron Olitsky Memorial Classic. The Eagles, members of the Sun Belt Conference, also have a win against North Florida. Georgia Southern's only loss is a 5-1 defeat to then-No. 18 FGCU.
