The Memphis Tigers men’s soccer team knew they were in for a challenge in Friday night’s season opener against UAB, so while the 3-1 loss wasn’t what the Tigers hoped for it wasn’t any cause for concern either.
That may have changed a little bit Monday afternoon following Memphis’ 1-0 loss at home to Northern Kentucky, who finished 6-10-4 against a relatively weak schedule a season ago. The loss gives Memphis an 0-2 record on the young season, and with three road games against difficult teams coming up next on the schedule the Tigers will have to figure things out sooner rather than later.
