Lethbridge – The Lethbridge Pronghorn men's soccer team hosts their final home games of the season and if they are to keep their playoff hopes alive, six points will be a must against the Winnipeg Wesmen.
 
Kick-off for Saturday and Sunday's games is scheduled for 2:15pm at the University Community Stadium.
 
With four games remaining in the season, the 'Horns (2-5-1) do not control their own destiny anymore and are currently seven points behind the Calgary Dinos for the final playoff spot in the Prairie Division.
 
Through eight games the 'Horns have scored 12 goals but are tied with the Wesmen and MacEwan Griffins for the most goals allowed in Canada West with 21.
 
Fourth-year midfielder Chris Rushworth leads the 'Horns in goals with six and is tied for second on the conference scoring list. Fellow midfielder Allan Siwela is the only other Pronghorn to score multiple goals this season with 2, both of which were scored last Sunday versus the Saskatchewan Huskies.
 
The Wesmen (1-6-1) sit at the bottom of the Prairie Division standings and enter the weekend winless in their last six games. Their lone win this season came against the MacEwan Griffins.
 
In addition to allowing the most goals against in the conference, the Griffins have scored the third fewest in Canada West with nine. Amos Ganyea and Enrique Garcea lead the Wesmen with two gaols a piece.
 
The 'Horns will head out on the road next week in the final games of the 2015 regular season and face the Griffins and Prairie Division leading Alberta Golden Bears in Edmonton.
