CHARLOTTE, NC - The Charlotte men's soccer scored a goal in each half and played sold defense to open the season with a 2-0 shutout of Campbell at Transamerica Field.
Charlotte scored their first goal of the season when senior C.J. Robinson corralled a deflection from a Campbell defender and sent a shot over the outstretched hands of Campbell goalkeeper Billy Englishby at the 38:38 mark of the game.
The 49ers scored their second goal with precision passing in the Campbell side of the field. Freshman David McGill fed junior Stephen Miller who sent a pass just across the goal mouth that sophomore Chris Wargin put in the back of the net. That was Wargin's first goal as a 49er.
