The Crimson Tide is set to host five home games, including three against SEC foes
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The Alabama soccer head coach Wes Hart announced the Crimson Tide's upcoming spring schedule, which includes five home games at the Alabama Soccer Complex. The season kicks off Saturday, March 2 when the Tide plays host to Georgia for a 3 p.m. contest.
"I am looking forward to all the home spring games," early enrollee Katarina Baehren, who joined the Tide for the Spring semester, said. "I am excited for the environment and the opportunity to contribute in any way possible."
After squaring off against Georgia, Alabama will play host to Clemson on Saturday, March 30 in a 1 p.m. match. The Tide will then face a pair of conference foes, starting with defending SEC champion Vanderbilt Sunday, April 7 at 1 p.m., followed by Tennessee Saturday, April 13 at 1 p.m. The spring season wraps up Friday, April 19 when Columbus State comes to Tuscaloosa. The match will start at 6:30 p.m.
The Tide will return 18 letterwinners from last season's team that finished with an 8-8-3 overall record. Alabama earned its first win over a top-five ranked opponent in program history, with a 1-0 shutout victory over then-No. 5 Texas A&M on Oct. 18, 2018. The Tide's 2019 recruiting class was recently recognized by Top Drawer Soccer as the No. 12 recruiting class in the nation.
Admission is free for all fans.
