The first game is on Thursday, September 26, against North Florida at 11 a.m. followed by a match on Sunday, September 29, against Jacksonville at 1:00 p.m. Both games will be played at the University Soccer Field. Thursday's game is an earlier start time than originally scheduled as the two teams agreed to play earlier to beat the worst of the weather forecasted to arrive with Hurricane Helene set to impact the Southeast region over the next few days. The UWG soccer team (1-7-0, 0-2-0 ASUN) is coming off a heartbreaking loss against Central Arkansas last Sunday. With only four minutes left on the clock, UWG committed a foul that resulted in a penalty kick, securing a 1-0 win for the Bears. As ASUN conference play continues, the Wolves will face North Florida (4-3-3, 1-1-0 ASUN) for the first time in school history on Thursday. The Ospreys arrive in Carrollton with a 1-1 record in conference play. They have scored eight goals this season, with redshirt sophomore Bella Pontieri contributing three goals, and redshirt sophomore Paige McSwigan adding two. In goal, UNF brings redshirt junior Sofia Miliancano, who returns this season after suffering a season-ending injury in 2023. Miliancano has appeared in nine games so far and recorded 29 saves. The Wolves will conclude the week with a Sunday match against Jacksonville University (2-5-1, 1-1-0 ASUN). Like UNF, the Dolphins come in with one win and one loss in conference play. However, they will face Queens on Thursday night before taking on UWG on Sunday. Jacksonville's offensive attack has been solid, scoring nine goals while conceding 14. The Wolves will need to keep an eye on Manuela Restrepo, a junior from Colombia, who leads the Dolphins in minutes played and has scored two goals this season. UWG will look to maintain possession of the ball, break through the opposing defenses, and find the back of the net. Thursday's kickoff was moved from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 a.m. due to weather concerns. Sunday's game will also kick off at 1:00 p.m. Both games will be held at the University Soccer Field, with live streaming available on ESPN+ and live stats provided. </div></body>
