After this weekend, Salem's men's water polo team has lots of preparation to do for their upcoming games that will be held in home territory - Morgantown, West Virginia. Saturday October 8^th at 4 PM, the Tigers will take on Fordham University. Then, on Sunday the 9^th, they play Wagner College at 10:20 AM and the United States Naval Academy at 3:40 pm. Salem is yet to beat any of these Division 1 teams this season, so they will be looking to go into these games as the underdogs. After a great weekend in Erie, it will be exiting to see what the Tigers bring to the table next weekend.
