Men's soccer opens season at Bryant

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Brown men's soccer team will open its season Friday, Sept. 2 at 7 p.m. at Bryant. It will be Friends of Brown Men's Soccer Head Coaching Chair Chase Wileman's first game at the helm of the Bears.

Brown will be looking to bounce back after a 2021 season that saw the Bears finish below .500 for the second straight season.

The game will be streamed live on ESPN+.

Scouting the Bears

Brown's three top returning scorers, Kojo Dadzie, Paul Elliott, and Owen Schwartz, all figure to play big roles this season. Dadzie leads returners with four goals last season.
With six players returning who started at least ten games last season, this year's starting lineups will look relatively different. Players like Charlie Adams (four starts in 2021), Michael Chung (four), and Kyle Gee (nine) will look to lock in starting roles.

Scouting the Bulldogs

Bryant is 1-1 on the young season with a 3-1 loss to UT Rio Grande Valley and a 2-0 win over Merrimack.
The Bulldogs' three goals have come from three different players, Barnaby Brandon, Adam Kozubal, and Brooklyn Baker.
In goal, Antreas Hadjigavriel has made one start, posting a 3.00 goals against average and a .700 save perecentage. In the other game, Luca Marinelli got the shutout victory by making three saves.

Series History

Bryant has won the previous two meetings with the last Brown win coming back in 2018. Three second-half goals in that one led to a 2-1 Bears victory.
