Warriors suffer last-second loss to Eagles

Box Score Box score

MILWAUKEE - Benedictine University's Christopher Madro broke a 1-1 tie by scoring the game-winning goal with just 20 seconds left on the second half clock as the Eagles handed Wisconsin Lutheran College a 2-1 defeat on Wednesday night in a Northern Athletics Conference game at Warrior Field.

The Warriors (3-7-2, 1-3-1 NAC), who suffered their fifth one-goal loss of the season, held a 1-0 lead at halftime after Matt Birschbach (Waukesha, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran) found the back of the net on an assist from freshman Kaleb Buch (Manitowoc, Wis./Lutheran) with 1:06 left in the first half.

Benedictine tied the score at one apiece at 62:04 on a goal by Slavko Milicevic. The game remained locked at 1-1 and appeared to be headed to an extra period, but Madro netted the game-winning tally with 20 seconds left to send the Eagles (5-7, 1-4 NAC) past WLC.

Birschbach finished with a team-high five shots for Wisconsin Lutheran, which outshot BU 18-17. Trevor Schwartz (Lake Geneva, Wis./Shoreland Lutheran) and Jake Parnau (Milwaukee, Wis./Greendale) added four shots each. Matt Eisold (Burlington, Wis./Burlington) made five saves in the contest.

The Warriors look to bounce back on Saturday as they travel to Sheboygan, Wis., for a 3:30 p.m. NAC battle against the Lakeland College Muskies.
