Men's Soccer Hosts Clayton State Monday

DAHLONEGA - The University of North Georgia men's soccer team will get a chance to avenge a season opening loss Monday when they play host to Clayton State at the UNG Soccer Complex at Lynn Cottrell Park.

North Georgia is coming off a 5-0 loss to Lander at home a week ago where the Bearcats scored four second half goals.

The Nighthawks fell to Clayton State on the road to start the season, 2-1. After a 13th minute goal by the Lakers was the difference at halftime, Donovan Odier came out just 90 seconds into the second half and drew level. CSU scored the game winning just five minutes later.

The Lakers are 2-2 on the year and are coming off a 4-1 win over Flagler back on February 28. Clayton also has a 2-1 loss to GSW and a 4-3 overtime loss at Young Harris on the record.

UNG Athletics will continue to offer complimentary admission to baseball, softball and soccer but will limit venue capacity at each facility based on available socially distant spaces. Admission to events will be capped when all marked seating in the bleachers and common areas for standing/chairs is occupied. UNG adjusted the seating configuration to adhere to social distancing guidelines in all facilities, with Nighthawks Athletic Club members (All-Region level or higher) and UNG students having top priority in the process. Rows, seats and common viewing areas are marked to maintain six feet of separation between attendees, who are not members of the same party.

To promote and prioritize the health and safety of student-athletes, coaches and game day personnel, fans will not be allowed to stand against the perimeter fence of each field/court to include the foul lines at baseball and softball and the stadium sideline at soccer. All policies are subject to change in accordance with national, state and local guidelines. Masks/face coverings are required for entry into the facility and must be worn at all times while inside the facility unless actively eating or drinking. Any individual who does not comply with this policy will be asked to leave the facility. The concessions stand will feature a reduced menu of pre-packaged items. Aramark Catering will accept both cash and credit cards.
