Wednesday's non-league game at SUNY Canton is the final tune up for the Clarkson University Men's Soccer team before it enters the heart of Liberty League play, as the Golden Knights look to use the game against the Kangaroos as a final push of momentum for conference play.

The Series: The Knights have lost just once to SUNY Canton in 12 meetings since 2012 and have outscored the Kangaroos 24-2 in that stretch. However, Canton has hardly been a pushover, as Clarkson won by a score of just 1-0 last year despite a 20-3 edge in shots and an 8-1 advantage in corner kicks.

Key Stats for Clarkson (3-1-2): Freshman Bodie Smith continued his scoring barrage on Saturday with a late insurance goal to run his streak to three straight games with a goal. His 11 points (5-1-11) are now only one point short of Marco Parisi (6-0-12) and Ismael Mohammad (6-0-12) in 2012 and 2003, respectively, among recent standout freshmen. Carson Morey's 16 points in 2001 are the next hurdle after that as the highest output for a Clarkson first-year in the 21st century.

Key Stats for SUNY Canton (1-6-1): The Roos picked up their first win of the season on Saturday with a three-goal outburst against Castleton. That said, Canton has played decently despite its run of winless games, having allowed 12 goals in eight contests that belie its record. Braydn Bovee has a .750 save percentage with 36 saves, having played all 720 minutes between the posts.
