ELON, N.C. – The Elon University women’s soccer team is set to host Latin Night at Rudd Field on Thursday, Sept. 21, when the Phoenix faces UNCW in its Colonial Athletic Association opener at 7 p.m.

Elon women’s soccer is teaming up with El Centro de Español at Elon University to celebrate Hispanic Heritage month, which began on Sept. 15 and lasts until Oct. 15.

Some of the added flavor to the soccer match includes a Spanish speaking PA announcer, Hispanic food sampling, Hispanic country flags on display around the field, and Latin pre-game music.
