We already knew that Bethlehem Steel FC would be opening their preseason schedule against Junior Lone Star at YSC Sports on February 22 at 2:00 PM, but we now know two additional opponents they will face in the coming weeks.
Bethlehem will take on Villanova at the Higgins Soccer Complex on March 1 at 4: 00 PM and Temple at Power Training Complex in Chester on March 4 at noon. They played Bethlehem in an unannounced match at Higgins last preseason, but have not played Temple before.
Villanova put together a 10-win season in the fall that saw them reach the semifinals of the Big East tournament and earn an NCAA tournament bid for the first time in program history.
