COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech soccer team will be putting the finishing touches on its exhibition slate Sunday evening, playing host to Chattanooga at Tech Soccer Field in the final tune up of the preseason. First kick is slated for 6 p.m. CT.
Admission is free of charge.
Recently selected to finish third in the OVC's predicted order of finish, the Golden Eagles will close out an exhibition schedule that features a pair of tilts in Cookeville. TTU fell 1-0 to Vanderbilt on Aug. 5, a scoreless contest into the 85th minute before the Commodores found the back of the net for the match's lone goal.
Picked to finish seventh in the Southern Conference preseason poll, Chattanooga is coming off a draw in the first of its two exhibition clashes with a 1-1 deadlock against fellow OVC foe Belmont on Aug. 9.
Tech will open the regular season on Friday, Aug. 17 at Georgia State, before battling Lipscomb on Aug. 19 to close out the first road swing of the year. TTU's regular-season home opener is set for Aug. 24 against ETSU.
