Paradise Brew 9/29: Keep It In The Family
Today, we're looking forward to Alumni Night at FAU Soccer Stadium.
Good morning. Make sure you’ve got that radio tuned to Fox Sports 640 South Florida at 6:30pm ET today to catch Florida Atlantic women’s basketball head coach Jennifer Sullivan and sophomore Aniya Hubbard talking with Frank Forte about the upcoming season and how the Owls feel about their new conference matchups!
What else are we mixing into today’s Brew?
⚽️ Quick draw
🖐 High five for Tom Herman
🦉 And much, much more
📈 STOCK UP
Stock Up is brought to you by Go Solar Power, providing a full suite of solar panels, EV chargers, air conditioning, hot water systems, and more designed specifically for quality and savings.
🔼 Quick Draw. FAU women’s soccer finished last night with a 1-1 draw to UAB—junior Sofia Voldby scored her second goal of the season in the 17th second of the match assisted by Olivia Bori. The Owls held the led through halftime when the Blazers scored in the 54th minute of the match. All in all, it was the second time in program history these two teams have tied, as the Owls totaled 10 shots and six shots on goal, while the Blazers only had four shot attempts on the night.
⚽️ The Owls will go on the road to face the 49ers on Thursday, October 5 at 7:00pm ET.
🔼 Keep It In The Family. FAU men's soccer will continue the quest for an AAC win tonight when Memphis comes to town for a 7:00pm ET kickoff—and the best part is it’s Alumni Night at the FAU Soccer Stadium!
All FAU men's soccer alumni are encouraged to join the team in the Founder's Lounge (located inside the Tom Oxley Center) for pregame food and drink starting at 5:00pm ET. For the general public, free pizza will be provided at the marketing table beginning at 6:45pm ET (first come, first serve until it's gone).
At halftime, there will be a special on-field presentation to honor former FAU head coach Kos Donev as well as all men's soccer alumni in attendance.

High five. When your name is mentioned in the same breath as Ryan Day, Kirby Smart, Nick Saban, and Lincoln Riley—you’re probably doing something right.
There are only five active head coaches in college football with at least a 60.0% winning percentage against ranked opponents and FAU head coach Tom Herman is one of them.
There may not be football this weekend, but you can still let your timeline know that the Owls are on your mind by retweeting this tweet.
