Niners host Coastal Carolina in exhibition opener

The Charlotte 49ers men's soccer team will host Coastal Carolina Sunday night at 6:30 in an exhibition opener at Transamerica Field. The Niners participated in the NCAA Tournament for the sixth time in program history in 2009 and are currently ranked inside the top 25.

Charlotte returns seven starters to a squad that reached the NCAAs for the first time under head coach Jeremy Gunn and the first time since 1997. Charlotte won 11 games under Gunn last season and are 18-2-5 at home under the Harrogate, England native.

The Niners head to UNC Greensboro on Wednesday Sept. 1 at 7 p.m. to kick off the regular season.
