The Tigers are also 0-2, losing to Central Connecticut and West Virginia .
And Wesley College heads down the road to visit Route 13 rival Salisbury.
The Wolverines, ranked fourth nationally in Division III, have dominated the series with the Sea Gulls recently – winning the last nine meeting between the two teams.
Both teams are 1-and-oh heading into Saturday night’s 6pm contest. Wesley beat #22 Thomas More last week 35-20 while Salisbury topped Christopher Newport 41-32.
