FAU men’s soccer (8-6-3, 2-4-2 C-USA) entered Charlotte, N.C. as the six-seed for its quarterfinal appearance in the Conference USA Tournament to take on hosts Charlotte (10-5-1, 5-3 C-USA), the third-seed, Wednesday night.

What occurred was a game to remember for the Owls as they reached their first semifinal since 2007, when FAU won the Atlantic Soccer Conference championship.
