WHAT: United Soccer Leagues Second Division game

WHEN/WHERE: Today at 7 p.m., University of Richmond Stadium

TICKETS: $12 adult, $7 youth (17-under)

NOTABLE: Fresh from snapping a two-game losing skid against Western Mass., the Kickers (2-2-0, six points) return home for the first time in more than a month to face league-leading Charlotte (4-0-1, 13). . . . The Eagles whipped Richmond 3-0 on April 25 in Charlotte and have outscored the opposition 14-3. . . . Leading the Eagles and USL2 in scoring is forward Dustin Swinehart (seven goals, two assists, 16 points). Charlotte also features former Kicker Robert Ssejjemba, who was the USL2 MVP in 2006, when Richmond won the league title. Ssejjemba has one goal in four games. Another dangerous player is forward Jorge Herrera (three goals). . . . Charlotte keeper Terry Boss has a 0.610 goals-against average. . . . Richmond hasn't lost at home to Charlotte since Aug. 23, 2002. . . . Forward Ben Hunter will serve a one-game suspension for receiving a red card in last Saturday's 1-0 win at Western Mass. Hunter has two assists in three games. . . . No one has more than one goal for the Kickers, who have scored only once in the past three games. . . . Keeper Ronnie Pascale has two shutouts and a 1.25 GAA. . . . Defender Kevin Knight (hamstring) remains out, and another backliner, Anthony Catalano (ankle), is questionable. . . . All active duty and retired military personnel receive free admission. -- John Packett
