NC State Men’s Soccer Topples Second Top-5 Opponent

It’s understandable if you’ve been preoccupied with the success of the football team or the start of the basketball season, but don’t forget about Pack Men’s soccer.

Just yesterday they beat #5 Louisville, which makes the second top-5 team that NC State has beaten (the first was #3 Clemson, earlier this season)

Freshman Manny Perez led the charge with 2 goals and 1 assist. The Pack moves to 8-4-3 on the season with 2 more games left before the tournament(home against South Carolina, Oct 24th, 7PM and home against Boston College, Oct 27th, 7PM). The Wolfpack are now guaranteed to finish in the Top-8 in the ACC, which guarantees they will host a game on November 1st.
