After a long offseason, the highly anticipated Georgia Southern men’s soccer season finally kicked off this past weekend as the team traveled to Charleston to compete in the Aaron Olitsky Tournament.
The Eagles lost two 1-0 battles against Monmouth and Furman.
The first game of the tournament for the Eagles was Friday night against the Monmouth Hawks. Georgia Southern came out firing as Adam Abdelloui had two first half shots.
The best chance of the first half came in the 42nd minute with junior midfielder Javier Carbonell getting clever and shifting the ball towards the goal, but a quick defensive move from a Monmouth defender kept the score tied at 0 at the half.
