STATESBORO, Ga. – On a brisk night in Boone, North Carolina the Eagles took to the pitch to face off against rival Appalachian State. The Blue and White entered play with a 4-6-1 record and a 2-3 record in conference play. With their matchup against Troy being moved to October 29th due to the predicted landfall of Hurricane Nate, the Eagles needed to come out with three points tonight to carry momentum back home to Eagle Field.
The Eagles jumped out to an early 1-0 lead after Asha Vilaythong takes a deflection and puts it past the keeper from eight yards out.
