Things are set to get underway at 7 p.m. from the Wendell and Vickie Bell Soccer Complex.
Pitt opened up exhibition play on Thursday, knocking off Ohio State by a score of 2-0 at Ambrose Urbanic Field. In that outing, Arielle Fernandez and Sarah Krause found the back of the net as the keeper Taylor Francis and the Panthers’ defense blanked the Buckeyes, who were ranked No. 23 in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Preseason Poll.
The Panthers will kick off the regular season Aug. 19 as they travel to Ann Arbor, Mich., for a 7 p.m. meeting with Michigan. Pitt will return to Ambrose Urbanic Field for a trio of home contests, welcoming Duquesne (Aug. 21), Colorado College (Aug. 25) and Xavier (Aug. 28).
