Yellowjackets Try to Bounce Back against Mary on Thursday (Oct. 12, 2004)

BILLINGS, MT – The Montana State-Billings men’s soccer team will try to bounce back from consecutive losses on Thursday when the Yellowjackets host University of Mary at 2:00 p.m.  The Jackets will also be trying to end the home season on a positive note on Senior Day for their six seniors.

MSU Billings dropped two games at its own tournament last weekend, losing 2-0 to Si Tanka and 2-1 to Grand Canyon.  Marcus Riley (Jr., Kalispell, MT) scored the Yellowjackets’ only goal of the weekend, his second of the year.

The losses dropped MSU Billings to 5-10-0 overall with just three games to play.  The Yellowjackets wrap up the home schedule against the Marauders on Thursday and play their final two games on the road in Colorado the following Sunday and Monday.

MSU Billings defeated Mary in Bismarck on September 18 by a score of 2-1.  Riley and Thomas Pertuit (Sr., Billings, MT) scored for the Yellowjackets.  Pertuit scored the game-winner in the 84th minute, heading in Colin Adams’s corner kick.  Pertuit leads the team with 11 goals and 24 points this season.

Thursday’s game against the Marauders will be the final home game for seniors Lucas Sanchez (Park City, UT), Jeff Marsich (Laurel, MT), Kyle Bales (Cody, WY), Pertuit, and Brian Palmer (Laramie, WY).  Senior Robbie Thimm (Park City, UT) will miss the game after receiving a red card against Grand Canyon on Sunday.

MSU Billings finishes the season on October 17 and 18 in Colorado.  The Yellowjackets play at Colorado-Colorado Springs on Sunday and at Metro State in Denver on Monday.
