TWO MORE ON TAP: The UAH men's soccer team will continue the early slate of games on Thursday when the team travels to Montevallo for a 7:30 p.m. contest before welcoming its second straight Sunshine State Conference opponent to Charger Park when Rollins visits for an 11 a.m. showdown on Sunday. UAH enters the stretch at 0-2-0 after taking then-No. 25 Lynn to double overtime.
 
FIRE AWAY: Through the first two games of the year, UAH is outshooting the opposition by a 31-20 margin with Hermann Bjornsson by far leading the team with 10 attempts. That number for the senior also has him leading the Gulf South Conference in shots.
 
KEEPER NOTES: Myles Fullen ranks third in the GSC with a goals against average of 1.87 through two contests, and that number is especially impressive considering he helped hold Lynn – who has jumped now to No. 4 in the country – to just two goals after the Fighting Knights had scored a stunning 15 goals in their first two games.
 
FRESHMAN IMPACT: Khalil Bell proved to be a spark for the Charger attack off the bench in the Lynn game, and the redshirt freshman scored in just his second career game while logging 68 minutes as the team's most-used reserve in the contest.
 
ABOUT MONTEVALLO: The Falcons are 2-0 on the year, pushing past Lincoln Memorial 2-1 in a neutral site game before going on the road to preseason GSC-favorite West Alabama where UM was a 3-2 winner in double overtime. Josh Keller is pacing the team with five goals and an assist for a team-best 11 points.
 
SERIES HISTORY: UAH is 11-13-1 in its history with the Falcons, and when the two sides met a season ago, the Chargers were 3-0 winners in the Rocket City. Daniel Buchanan notched the third of his three game-winners from last year when he opened the scoring in the contest, and Bjornsson had a three-point night as he scored and added an assist.
 
ABOUT ROLLINS: After opening the season at No. 17 in the country, the Tars have fallen out of the rankings after dropping a 3-0 decision to Wingate before defeating then-No. 9 Young Harris 2-0. Tosan Popo and Stefan Avram notched the goals for Rollins in the victory against YHC.
 
SERIES HISTORY: The Chargers are 2-5-0 all-time against Rollins with the Tars taking the last meeting a season ago by a 3-2 score in Winter Park, Florida. Bjornsson had one of UAH's two goals as he was successful on a PK late in the affair.
