Duplicating Success

Davide Panucci scored a goal and Fabian Avila had two in the win while Uri-Malcolm Young registered assists on all three scores.

The Pacers will have Senior Day prior to the home match against North Georgia on Saturday. At that time, the squad will be recognized for their hard work and dedication to the program over the years.
