The season is only two games old for the USL PRO Charlotte Eagles, but thus far they have demonstrated a very stingy defense.
[show_disconnected][show_to accesslevel=’Subscriber’] In posting a 2-0 win over Antigua and a scoreless draw against the Rochester Rhinos, the Eagles have allowed a total of five shots.
Antigua managed only one shot on goal in 90 minutes, and against the Rhinos the Eagles outshot Rochester 11-4, with neither team finishing an opportunity.
Nate Thornton and Christian Ramirez scored in the season opener against the Barracuda.
The Eagles defense will be tested in their next outing against the league-leading Orlando City Lions, which have won three of their first four games.
Leading Orlando City is former UNC Tar Heel Jamie Watson.
