If you were looking to watch some soccer this afternoon when turning on to the ACC Network extra to see Pitt men’s soccer take on Georgetown, the defending national champs in an exhibition game scheduled was canceled due to COVID related concerns within the Hoya program.

Now, Pitt’s next game will be its home spring regular season opener Saturday, Feb. 20 vs. Akron at 3 p.m.

The game will be broadcast on the ACCNX.
