Box Score Box score

MILWAUKEE - The Wisconsin Lutheran College men's soccer team could not overcome a 4-1 halftime deficit en route to falling to the Lakeland College Muskies 4-2 on Saturday afternoon at Warrior Field.

The Muskies jumped out to a 1-0 lead at the 14:11 mark of the opening half after connecting on a penalty kick. Wisconsin Lutheran answered to tie the game when sophomore Jhonathan Rosales (Guatemala City, Guatemala/English American School) found the back of the net off an assist from Matt Birschbach (Waukesha, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran).

Lakeland went on to score three more goals over a seven minute span to take a 4-1 lead at halftime. WLC netted its final goal of the match at the 61:08 mark when James Sather (Milwaukee, Wis./Nathan Hale) scored unassisted.

The Warriors managed to out-shoot the Muskies, 19-14. Cameron Teske (Crete, Ill./Illinois Lutheran) attempted a match-high five shots for the forest green and white.

Matt Eisold (Burlington, Wis./Burlington) and Alex Vogel (Jackson, Wis./Kettle Moraine Lutheran) combined for three saves in the game.

Wisconsin Lutheran (4-6, 2-3 NAC) hosts NAC preseason-favorite Dominican University on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Warrior Field.
