Virginia Tech visits Furman looking to respond after Pitt loss

Virginia Tech heads to Furman on Friday, October 16, for a 6 p.m. Eastern men’s soccer match at Stone Stadium in Greenville, South Carolina. The Hokies’ official schedule lists ESPN+ for the road fixture.

Tech is 7–4–1 overall and 3–2–1 in ACC play as of Wednesday. Its away record is 2–2–1, compared with 5–2 at home. Friday gives the Hokies another road assignment immediately after their trip to Pittsburgh.

Their most recent result was a 3–0 loss at Pitt on October 9. The schedule lists no intervening match before Furman, leaving the Hokies a week between that defeat and Friday’s kickoff. The immediate question is whether Tech can produce a scoring response after being held without a goal in Pittsburgh.

After Furman, Virginia Tech is scheduled to host Winthrop at Thompson Field in Blacksburg on Wednesday, October 21. Friday’s match therefore comes between the Pitt trip and that return home, with the Hokies seeking a better road result before their next home date.
