Panthers continue homestand with games Wednesday and Saturday
The Drury Panthers head into the second week of the season with two home games as they host Southern Nazarene on Wednesday afternoon at 1 pm, then Rogers State on Saturday night at 7 pm.
 
Drury is 1-1 after a season-opening win over Upper Iowa, 4-1, then a 2-1 loss to Northeastern State on Sunday. Southern Nazarene is 1-0-1 with their win coming over Southwest Baptist, 5-0, last Thursday. The Crimson Storm drew a 1-1 tie against Dallas Baptist in their second game. Rogers State started the year 2-0 having beaten Eastern New Mexico 4-2 and Missouri S&T 2-1. The Hillcats play at home against Midwestern State on Sept. 1 before coming to Springfield.
 
Drury's game against Southern Nazarene is their first against the Crimson Storm since 2012. The Panthers are 3-0-1 all-time against SNU. Drury has only played Rogers State once and lost to the Hillcats 2-0 in 2018 in Claremore, Oklahoma.
 
Sophomore Kaelan Debbage, a transfer from Kansas City Kansas Community College and native of Queensland, Australia, has scored goals in each of his first two games for the Panthers. He also has an assist and five points in his first two games at the NCAA-II level.
 
The two games this week wrap up Drury's non-conference schedule. The Panthers open play in the Great Lakes Valley Conference on Sept. 11 when they travel to Quincy.
