Jacket Soccer Plays Tough in Season Opener (8/26/05)
Box Score

 

DENVER, CO – The Montana State-Billings men's soccer team struck first on Friday, but fell to Metropolitan State of Denver, 2-1.  The game was the season opener for both teams.

The Jackets' goal came at 30:19 of the first half. The ball was sent into the box on a free kick from Marcus Riley (Sr., MF, Kalispell, MT) to Victor Sargent (Jr., MF, Billings, MT) who headed the ball into the net.  This goal gave the Yellowjackets a 1-0 advantage at halftime.

This goal was Sargent’s first on the season and fourth of his career.  The Jackets had just three shots on goal in the game.  MSU Billings goalkeeper Jess Feldtman (Sr., Lander, WY) made seven saves.

Held scoreless in the first half, the Roadrunners overcame the deficit with two second half goals.  The first goal came in at 52:34 from Aldo Alcaraz-Reza.  Roadrunner Phillip Owen scored the game winning goal with 26:54 remaining in the game.

“The team played fantastic today,” said Yellowjacket head coach Dan McNally. “I am very pleased with the team’s performance.  They gave a top 25 team a true testJess Feldtman was outstanding in goal, and if we play with this same commitment and organization against School of Mines we will be fine.  We will need to build on what we did today.

The men’s team will remain in Denver to take on Colorado School of Mines Sunday at 1:00 p.m.
