2017 AKRON MEN'S SOCCER SCHEDULE | LIVE STATS
AKRON, Ohio – The University of Akron men's soccer team will close out its exhibition campaign on Saturday, Aug. 19, as the Zips welcome Loyola (Md.) to FirstEnergy Stadium – Cub Cadet Field for a 4 p.m. tilt.
The Greyhounds return eight starters this fall from a squad that posted an 8-7-3 ledger a season ago, including a 6-1-2 mark in the Patriot League.
Loyola is led by the return of its leading scorer from 2016 in sophomore Brian Saramago. A season ago, Saramago recorded a team-high 10 goals, while adding three assists, on the strength of registering team-best marks in shots (72) and shots on goal (35).
The Greyhounds will be breaking in a new goalkeeper this season following the graduation of Matt Sanchez, who registered 63 saves and five shutouts in 2016.
Akron and Loyola are meeting for the first time since a 2-1 Zips' victory on Sept. 17, 2005 at the Princeton Tournament in Princeton, N.J.
