The 20
th-ranked Fort Hays State men's soccer team gets to play on its home turf for the first time this season on Monday (Sept. 12) when it welcomes UC-Colorado Springs to town. The match is set for 5 pm.
Â
The Tigers are 1-1-1 to start 2016, coming off of a big double-overtime win over Texas A&M-International on Thursday. The Mountain Lions are 1-0-1 to start the season and take on Newman Saturday (Sept. 10) before coming to Hays. UCCS is receiving votes in the first regular season release of national rankings.
Â
Maurizio Costa leads the Tiger offense this year with a goal and two assists.
Derick Gonzalez,
Tobias Patino and
Luis Torres have each chipped in with a goal.
Â
The strength for UCCS is the defensive back line as they have yet to surrender a goal in 2016. On the other end, the Mountain Lions have found the back of the net just once this year, coming in a 1-0 win over Lubbock Christian to start the season.
