Stars erupted for six goals in the second half to break open a 0-0
halftime score and defeat Wisconsin Lutheran College 6-0 on Tuesday
afternoon in a Northern Athletics Conference men's soccer game at
West Campus Field.
The Warriors held conference-leading Dominican in check
throughout the first half. Senior goalkeeper Matt Eisold
(Burlington, Wis./Burlington) made seven first-half saves, which
included turning away a DU penalty kick. WLC's one shot attempt
came from Matt Birschbach (Waukesha, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran), who
sailed the ball over the crossbar with 14 seconds left in the first
half.
The Stars (9-1-3, 7-0-0 NAC), who have not lost a conference
game (37-0-1) since the NAC's inception in 2006, showcased their
strengths in the second half by netting all six of their goals.
After a scoreless first eight minutes of the half, Dominican
tallied its first score of the contest at 53:01. DU went on to net
five more goals the remainder of the half, including its final
three within a span of just over two minutes.
Michael Kapusta and Juan Saldana, who scored a pair of goals,
recorded six shots each for the Stars. Aaron Romo added two
assists.
Eisold secured five saves in the second half, while junior
teammate Chris Lorig (Crete, Ill./Illinois Lutheran) added two
saves in over nine minutes of goalie action.

capital city on Saturday to play its second-to-last road game of
the season against Edgewood College. Game time between the Warriors
