Men's Soccer - Wed, Sep 16, 2009

Hillsboro, Kan. - After starting the season with two impressive road victories the Tabor College Men's Soccer Team dropped its second straight match Tuesday night in Manhattan, Kan. as the Bluejays fell to Manhattan Christian College by the score of 6-3.


Tabor started off fast as sophomore Marcos Bandeira (Porto Alegre, Brazil) and senior Andy Adrian (Buhler, Kan.) each added a goal in the first half to give the Bluejays and early 2-0, lead. The Crusaders would answer with two goals of their own later in the half to knot the score at two apiece heading into the break.


Manhattan Christian's offense would pick up where it left off in the second half, as the Crusaders would score four unanswered goals on their way to a 6-2, second half lead. Senior Dallas Pruitt (McPherson, Kan.) would tack on a goal late in the match to cut the lead to 6-3, but it was too little to late for the Bluejays.


Tabor (2-2 Overall) will return home to host Oklahoma Baptist University (Shawnee, Okla.), Friday Sept. 18th, at 3 p.m. in its home opener at the brand new Joel H. Wiens Stadium.
