MATCH CENTRAL: High Point

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- No. 22 Tennessee will look to extend its win streak to six on Sunday as it hosts High Point for a 6:30 p.m. ET match at Regal Soccer Stadium. The game will be streamed on SECN+.

UT is coming off a 2-0 win on the road against its first ranked opponent of the season in a USF team that is receiving votes in the United Soccer Coaches Poll and is ranked No. 23 by Top Drawer Soccer. At 5-0 on the season, it's the best start a UT team has had since 2017 when the Vols opened the season with nine straight wins.

High Point is looking for its first win of the season, holding a record of 0-3-1. In their most recent outing, the Panthers fell to East Carolina, 1-2. HPU was picked to finish first in the Big South by the league's coaches in the 2021 preseason poll.

It is the first matchup between the two programs. UT is 9-0-1 all-time against Big South opponents.

Several food trucks will be on-site for UT's Foodies Paradise night, and the first 100 children in attendance can follow dinner up with dessert at the Sunday Sundae & toppings bar. Full details utsports.com/FanHQ.
