ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. – Seven home contests, including four straight in Atlantic 10 competition, highlight the 2011 St. Bonaventure men's soccer schedule announced Tuesday.

The Bonnies, who went 10-8-1 (5-3-1 Atlantic 10) last season, open up with a trio of regional opponents to start the year, beginning with an exhibition opposite NCAA Division III University of Rochester. Buffalo visits McGraw-Jennings Field for the Bonnies' home opener Aug. 26 before SBU heads to Little 3 rival Niagara Aug. 28 for its first road contest of the year.
