After putting in the work in training each morning on their home turf Monday through Wednesday in preparing for its NCAA Men’s Soccer College Cup match vs Indiana on Friday night in Cary, NC, Pitt men’s soccer team packed its bags and headed to North Carolina on Wednesday afternoon.
The Panthers weren’t allowed to leave Pittsburgh though without a big sendoff from a packed crowd that included various University officials, before boarding its bus outside of the Peterson Sports Complex.
Thanks @Pitt_ATHLETICS for the amazing send-off as we head to the College Cup‼️
We will do everything in our power to make Panther Nation proud this weekend 💛💙#H2P pic.twitter.com/5x7E3dJ4BL
