A bad loss to Indiana Wesleyan University back in late September was
obviously on the minds of the Foresters as they headed to Marion to
take on the Wildcats in their first round MCC Tournament game.
This time it took overtime to decide a winner, but unfortunately, it
was IWU that got the 1-0 win with a goal in the second minute of the
extra period.
"This was a masterful performance by the team
tonight," said Coach Lawson. "Every ball was challenged, we
tactically kept our shape, and we generated a handful of quality
scoring opportunities that could have sent us through to the next
round. We turned some heads tonight and we gave our fans an effort
that was truly inspiring."
The Wildcats
outshot HU 15-3 for the game and had seven corner kicks to just two
for the Foresters. HU keeper Kevin Keske recorded five saves
in the match.
With the loss, HU concludes its
season with a 6-11-2 record. Freshman forward Steven Roberts
who scored six goals and dished out four assists during the season
was named to the MCC All-Conference Second Team. |
