Geoff Lanham Looks to Move the Ball Up-field for the Bluejays
Men's Soccer - Mon, Sep 28, 2009

Hillsboro, Kan. - The Tabor College Men's Soccer Team fell to Sooner Conference power the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma Saturday afternoon in Hillsboro, Kan. by the score of 4-0.


USAO did not waste much time getting on the board early and often in the first half as the Drovers scored all four goals in the first half including two in the first 12 minutes of the match.


Tabor's defense would play much better in the half as the Bluejays were able to hold the Drovers scoreless. Despite the four goals senior goalkeeper Aaron Schmucker (Inman, Kan.) had a solid day in net recorded 13 saves in the match.


"The guys did not handle the pressure USAO applied to us early in the match," said Head Coach Grant Brubacher. "We played much better in the second half after making some adjustments, but we're unable to overcome the deficit we created for ourselves. As the conference season approaches, we need to find a more consistent game."


Tabor (2-4-1) will host Central Christian College Tuesday Sept. 29, at 7 p.m. at the beautiful new Joel H. Wiens Stadium.
