The Alabama soccer team will travel to Vanderbilt tonight to take on the Commodores at 6 p.m. in an exhibition game to open the 2015 season. The exhibition, the Crimson Tide’s only one this season, will mark the debut of first-year head coach Wes Hart. The game will be broadcast on SECNetwork+.
Hart joins the Crimson Tide after two seasons as an assistant coach at Florida State, including the Seminoles’ 2014 national championship season. During his time with the team, it won two back-to-back ACC championships, made two College Cup appearances, and earned a national runner-up finish as well as its national title.
In his first year at Alabama, Hart’s roster will feature nine new players, including seven freshmen and two transfers.
