MORROW, Ga. – Clayton State (0-0, 0-0 PBC) men's soccer will waste no time in seeing where they stand as they host 2018 NCAA Division II Tournament qualifier Anderson (11-6-3, 5-2-3 SAC) to open the 2019 campaign on Thursday, September 5. Game time is set for 7 p.m. as the back half of a split doubleheader with the women at Laker Field.
 
In a series that dates to September 12, 1997, the Lakers are an impressive 8-0 but the teams have not met since September 5, 2015 when Clayton State posted a narrow 2-1 decision at Laker Field. The previous meeting was also a four year stretch with AU dropping a 5-1 road decision on September 2, 2011.
 
Overall the series has featured six of the eight games in Morrow with the only exceptions being the very first contest, a 5-1 win in Anderson, South Carolina on September 12, 1997, and a 1-0 NCAA Regional Championship victory on November 14, 2000 in Montevallo, Alabama. The latter sent the Lakers to the Elite Eight for the first time in program history.
