     Brown opens its extremely competitive non-conference slate with Lehigh (Sept. 6) at 3:00 p.m., and then welcomes SMU to Providence for its first game of the annual Adidas-Brown Soccer Classic (Sept. 11).  The Bears close out the tournament with Adelphi of the Atlantic Soccer Conference at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday the 13th.   Brown travels to Bryant (Sept. 15) and then URI (Sept. 19) for 7:00 p.m. games before heading out west to challenge the top two teams of the West Coast Conference.
 
    The Bears are slated to take on Santa Clara at 7:30 p.m. PT (Sept. 25) and then San Francisco at 2:00 p.m. on the 27th.  The Broncos were picked second in the WCC's preseason poll, as the Dons were tabbed first as the defending WCC Champions.
