BOSTON - The Northeastern University men's soccer team (1-4-4, 0-3-0 CAA) continues its stint of road games as the Huskies take on conference foe Stony Brook (1-4-2, 0-2-1 CAA) on Friday afternoon, and non-conference foe New Hampshire (2-2-2, 0-0-0 AE) on Tuesday evening. Friday's kick off is scheduled for 3 p.m. on FloFC, while Tuesday's game will take place at 6 p.m. on ESPN+.

1. HOLD THE LINE
The Northeastern defense has allowed one goal or less in seven of its nine games this season for a 1.00 goals against average and three shutouts. That's good for the fifth-lowest GAA in the CAA, and three shutouts is tied for the third-most in the conference.
 
2. DOWN ON LONG ISLAND
The Huskies head to Long Island to face Stony Brook for just the third time since the Seawolves joined the CAA in 2022 – Northeastern has a 1-0-1 record against Stony Brook in CAA play, and 7-3-1 all-time. While NU is looking for its first conference points of the season, Stony Brook earned a conference point on the road at Monmouth in a 2-2 draw. The two conference losses for the Seawolves were against Charleston at home and Elon on the road.
 
3. SCOUTING THE WILDCATS
Northeastern's second-to-last non-conference game takes place in Durham, N.H. next Tuesday evening against Northeast powerhouse New Hampshire. The Wildcats enter their first conference weekend with a 2-2-2 record, with wins over Princeton and William & Mary. New Hampshire has a 1-1-0 record against CAA teams this season, falling by a score of 1-0 at #12 Hofstra earlier this month. The Wildcats are on an eight-game winning streak in the all-time series between the two programs.
 
 
Following next Tuesday's contest the Huskies will take a short break before their next conference game, which takes place Saturday, October 12^th at the College of Charleston. That contest kicks off at 1 p.m. on FloFC.
