UNCG 2, Virginia 1

The UNC Greensboro (UNCG) men's soccer team overcame the Virginia Cavaliers (UVA), 2-1, on Tuesday afternoon at Klöckner Stadium. Junior Daniel Longo provided the edge for UNCG, cleaning up a loose ball in the box and scoring his first goal as a Spartan in the 86th minute to make it 2-1. Redshirt sophomore Seth Wilson stood tall in goal for the Spartans, making four saves during the match.

Wake Forest 2, ETSU 0

Playing its final contest on a four-game road swing, ETSU goalkeeper Marc Kouadio registered a school-record 14 saves; however, the Buccaneers suffered a 2-0 setback at Wake Forest on Tuesday night at Spry Stadium. Kouadio, who tied the most saves by a Division I keeper this season, bested his career high by four saves in Winston-Salem. Kouadio's previous high was 10 when he played at Dayton against Duquesne on March 17, 2021. The Buccaneer keeper stopped seven shots in the first half, where the teams played a scoreless 45 minutes, while Kouadio stopped eight more shots in the second half. Kouadio broke Jonny Sutherland's prior school record of 10 saves, which was set on Oct. 6, 2017 against Furman.
