The team has lost six of its seven games in October, and on top of that they are having trouble putting goals in the back of the net. In four of the seven games this month the Cougars haven’t scored a goal.
The Cougars would try to find offense and a win last Tuesday night against Cardinal Stritch University in Milwaukee, Wis. The team did everything in their power to get on the scoreboard but were defeated in the end 1-0 by CSU. The Cougars had eight shots on goal and 14 total shots for the game but still couldn’t put the ball pass the goalkeeper.
The Wolves got the game-winning goal in the first half from sophomore midfielder Jordan Lott and teammate freshmen midfielder Anna Stadler provided the assist. Goalkeeper Kara Casebolt had eight saves on the night to preserve the shutout for the Wolves.
The Cougars played well defensively and junior goalkeeper Danielle Koncius had six saves for the Cougars, who dropped to a 4-10-1 (2-7-1) record overall for the season after the loss.
There is still a few games left in the season and the Cougars will look to pick up some more victories before the conference tournament starts.
The team has one more true home game left against Roosevelt University on Nov. 2 at 11:30 a.m. on Bruce R. Deaton Memorial Field.
Come out and see the team at home one more time before the season ends as they try to make up as much ground as possible in their conference before the tournament starts. Lets show the team some support.
