The West Virginia University men's soccer team will play two exhibition matches this weekend against No. 7 Penn State and James Madison.
The team first travels to Lancaster, Pa., on Saturday, August 23, where they will face off against the Nittany Lions at Elco High School. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.
"It is a great opportunity to test ourselves against a top 10 team," said coach Mike Seabolt.
The team will then head south to Harrisonburg, Va., where they will play the Dukes of James Madison.
"It's an exhibition game but every game means something. It will be good for our kids to play well," says coach Seabolt.
Sunday's match with JMU gets underway at 4 p.m.
The Mountaineers kick off the regular season on Friday, August 29, when they face Virginia Commonwealth in the Virginia Commonwealth Tournament.
