After starting this season 3-1, St Leo (3-5-0) has seen their fortunes reverse and lose four straight. During this stretch, the Lions have been shutout twice and outscored 7-2. They sit last in the Sunshine State Conference standings. That is the bad news.

The good news is that they face Florida Tech (5-5-0) the only other team in the conference that has failed to win a conference match. Tech has dropped their first three conference games by a combined score of 8-1. The Panthers started the season with three straight wins before losing six of their next eight matches.

Last season's match up was won 4-2 by Florida Tech in Melbourne.

Stanley Abada, a junior from Nigeria, is the Panthers' leading scorer (four goals and one assist) and junior Dean Faithful of Southampton, England is Tech's assist leader with four. Goalkeeper, Derrick Hackett, has played every minute for the Panthers and has a GAA of 1.50 and three shutouts.

The Panthers feature five players from England on their roster. The only Bay area player for Florida Tech is St Petersburg High School's Matt Kepto, a freshman defender. Matt has made six appearances for the Panthers this season, four of them being starts.

For St Leo, Jonathan Glenn leads the team in scoring with five goals and Leonardo Nogueira leads with five assists.

This match is the second part of a Lions-Panthers double header. The women's sides kick off at 5pm.
