Match Preview:
The Eagles men's soccer team returns to Eagle Field this Saturday for a key matchup against the LaGrange College Panthers.
Coming off a successful road trip to Texas, the Eagles carry momentum from two impressive victories — a gritty 1-0 win over region opponent SWAU and a commanding 3-0 shutout of Dallas Christian College. They'll look to build on that success against LaGrange, a program that has consistently posed a tough challenge.
The Eagles and Panthers share a competitive history, with PCC holding a narrow 4–3 edge in their eight all-time meetings. Recent clashes between the two have been high-scoring affairs, setting the stage for another exciting contest this weekend.
New faces played a major role in last week's wins. Freshman midfielder Jameson Bryant delivered a dramatic last-second game-winner against SWAU, while transfers Samir Vieira Siqueira and Odanci Ndayisaba, along with returning sophomore Jackson Clarke, found the back of the net in the victory over Dallas Christian. In goal, senior Nathaniel Hixson anchored the defense with 11 saves across the two matches, earning back-to-back clean sheets.
Riding a 2-0 start, the Eagles return home aiming to extend their winning streak to three with a statement victory over LaGrange. Kickoff is set for 4:00 PM this Saturday on Eagle Field. Come out and cheer on your Eagles!
