Mount Aloysius College @ Pitt-Greensburg
Tuesday, October 25 at 3:00pm

The final AMCC Men's Soccer Game of the Week features the Mounties of Mount Aloysius College (7-7-2, 5-0-1 AMCC) traveling to Greensburg, PA to take on the Bobcats of Pitt-Greensburg (8-4-4, 4-1-1 AMCC).

The Mounties come into the regular season finale having won five straight AMCC contests. Over the five-game streak, the Mounties have only allowed three total goals and outscored their opponents, 29-3. They have been led by senior F Tevin Beadle, who has scored five goals in the last week, placing him on top of the league in both points and goals. Their defense has been anchored by junior D Ethan Meader and junior D Rhett Pletcher. Both players have scored four goals out of the backfield. Pletcher was named the Preseason Co-Defensive Player of the Year, and is joined by Meader, along with senior D Curtis Brewer and junior GK Luke Priestley, both All-AMCC members in 2021, to create the strong Mountie defense. Mount Aloysius is seeking their first bye in the AMCC Tournament since the 2017 season.

Pitt-Greensburg goes into the AMCC Game of the Week after clinching the program's second-consecutive playoff appearance and its first home playoff game since 2014. The Bobcats have been lead by freshman standout Caleb Yuricha. Yuricha is tied for the conference lead in goals with 12. Also playing a huge role for Pitt-Greensburg is junior keeper Danny Rodgers. Rodgers is in the top five in the conference in saves, save percentage, goals against and goals against average. Pitt-Greensburg can secure a first-round bye in the AMCC Playoffs with a win.
