Published on June 20, 2008 under United Soccer League Championship (USL) News Release


The Charlotte Eagles pro team and the Charlotte Lady Eagles w-league team are both on the road this weekend for league play. The Eagles pro team face new-comer to the league, the Real Maryland Monarchs on Saturday, June 21st. Meanwhile, the Lady Eagles face the Carolina Dynamo Women on Saturday. Also, don't forget that the Kick for the Cure Jersey auction ends on Saturday at 5:00 pm. Visit www.CharlotteEagles.com to access the auction site.

Eagles @ Real Maryland Monarchs

The Eagles pro team currently sits atop the USL-2 standings with a 7-1-2 record for 23 points. Charlotte faces Real Maryland this Saturday in Maryland. The Monarchs have had a tough start to their inaugural season with a 3-6-0 record for 9 points. Their best showing of the season was in the 3-2 victory over current number two Cleveland City Stars.

Charlotte must not take the team lightly though. The Monarchs certainly have some talent on their team, and the Eagles are in the midst of their busiest run of the season, with Open Cup matches adding to an already full schedule. Saturday kicks off a long stretch for the Eagles, with an Open Cup match in Charleston on Tuesday and a two game weekend on July 27th and 28th. Should the Eagles defeat Charleston on Juen 24th, then the Eagles will host the '06 & '07 MLS Champion Houston Dynamo on July 1st in Charlotte.

Lady Eagles Face Carolina Dynamo

The Charlotte Lady Eagles face the Carolina Dynamo Women on Saturday night. The Lady Eagles (8-1-0, 24 pts) are tied with Atlanta with 24 points thus far this season, but Charlotte has played one more game than Atlanta, and the Lady Eagles' only loss is to Atlanta.

Carolina currently sits in the middle of the W-League Atlantic Division Standings at 2-5-1 for 7 points. The Lady Eagles and Dynamo women played once already this season, and Charlotte came away with a 3-2 victory back on May 16th at Restart Field.

The Lady Eagles return to home field action on June 27th, hosting the Carolina Railhawks. Kickoff is slated for 7:00pm at Restart Field. Visit www.charlotteeagles.com for tickets and save $2.00/ticket online in advance.
