Men's Soccer Travels to Face Campbell
10/17/2022 6:28:00 PM | Men's Soccer
BIRMINGHAM - UAB men's soccer (3-7-2) will hit the road for the final non-conference match of the season at Campbell (8-3-3) on Tuesday night at 5 p.m CT. The game will stream live on ESPN+.
SERIES HISTORY
This is the first meeting between the Blazers and the Fighting Camels. Campbell will be the 139th different opponent that UAB has faced all-time.
OFFICIALLY AAC
UAB men's soccer is the first of all Blazer programs to join the American Athletic Conference. While each of the other UAB programs will join the league in 2023, men's soccer became an affiliate member for the 2022 season due to C-USA no longer supporting men's soccer.
COMMON OPPONENTS
The two sides have not faced any common opponents during the 2022 season.
LAST TIME OUT FOR THE BLAZERS
The Blazers secured the first American Conference win in program history against UCF on Friday night. Nathaniel St. Louis, Curtis DeLeon and Gal Ben Dayan each scored a goal en route to the 3-1 victory.
SCOUTING THE FIGHTING CAMELS
Campbell is another high scoring opponent, averaging 2.14 goals per game. Jalen James leads the Fighting Camels with seven goals so far on the year, while Daniel Hernandez is tied for second on the team in points with four goals and six assists. Edu Rodriguez and Sean Ellis have split time at goalkeeper during the 2022 season.
RETURNING PRODUCTION
The Blazers return three of their top four goal scorers from the 2021 campaign in Nathaniel St. Louis, Brooks Rice and Curtis DeLeon. Also returning is Teodor Thorvaldsen who led the team with four assists.
WE'RE ALL FROM SOMEWHERE
UAB men's soccer has student-athletes from six states and eight different countries (Norway, Canada, Germany, Spain, Israel, Hungary, Austria). Alabama is the most well-represented state with nine Blazers and Norway is the most well-represented country outside of the U.S. with three players (Thorvaldsen, Love Groth, Overland).
LOTS OF NEW FACES
UAB brings in many new faces for the 2022 season. The Blazers added 19 newcomers during the offseason to add depth to the rotation.
THE VETERANS
Brooks Rice, Nathaniel St. Louis and Curtis DeLeon have led the way for UAB so far on the offensive end. St. Louis leads the Blazers with five goals on the year while Rice has added three of his own. DeLeon has assisted on four of UAB's 12 goals. His four assists are tied for the most by a Blazer since 2015.
TOUGH SCHEDULE
UAB has already faced off with five ranked opponents during the 2022 slate in Clemson, Wake Forest, Charlotte, Tulsa and SMU. Both Clemson and Wake Forest were ranked inside of the top five teams in the nation when they faced the Blazers.
HUDSON'S BRILLIANCE IN GOAL
Graduate student Jack Hudson has been a standout for the Blazers in goal throughout the 2022 season. He was named AAC Goalkeeper of the Week for his performance against then-No. 18/12 Tulsa. Against then-No. 1 Clemson, Hudson made a career-high 10 saves. He followed up that performance against the high-powered attack of No. 23 SMU with eight saves.
