Chargers Host Newberry Sunday at Charger Park

2/10/2018 9:02:00 AM

UAH vs. Newberry
WHEN Sunday, Feb. 11 | 12 p.m.
WHERE Bob Jones High School | Madison, Ala.

ANOTHER AT HOME: The UAH men's lacrosse team will play its second consecutive home game to open the 2018 season on Sunday, welcoming visiting Newberry for a 12 p.m. contest at Bob Jones High School in Madison. UAH enters the match at 0-1.
 
LAST TIME OUT: The Chargers fought strong in the home debut a week ago, but the team ultimately fell 18-10 to No. 20 Saint Leo.
 
IMMEDIATE IMPACT: Newcomer Nicholas Ranta made his presence known in his Charger debut, scoring a team-high three times in the setback to Saint Leo. He also fired off six shots of which a team-best five were on target.
 
TAKING ADVANTAGE: Of UAH's 10 goals last weekend against SLU, four came on man-up opportunities, and the four man-up goal represent a single-game record for the Chargers who had previously scored as many as three man-up goals in several games over the program's first two seasons. Two of the man-up goals came from Collin Wilcox who now has four such scores in his career.
 
STOPPING SHOTS: Sophomore goalie Kyle Siersma had a strong start to the new year, recording 16 saves against Saint Leo. That total surpasses his season total from a year ago when he made nine saves in reserve action in seven appearances.
 
ABOUT NEWBERRY: The Wolves are playing their inaugural season of men's lacrosse, and the team opened their debut campaign with a 14-11 setback at Montevallo on Friday night. Dylan Mansur led Newberry with an eight-point performance as he scored five times and added three assists, while Erick Szurley made six stops in goal for the Wolves.
 
SERIES HISTORY: This will be the first meeting between the two programs.
