Men's Soccer
Men's Soccer Finish Regular Season Undefeated
Game Summary
It was a 90 minute struggle but the Bethel College men’s soccer team eventually broke through to defeat the Marian University Knights by the final score of 2—0 on Saturday night in Indianapolis, Ind.
With the win, the Pilots improve to 15—0—1 on the season to finish the regular season undefeated and back to back MCC Champions.
Reining MCC men’s soccer offensive player of the week Romulo Nobrega was once again the offensive star for the Pilots as he recorded two goals in the final ten minutes of action to lead Bethel to victory.
Although Bethel seemed to dominate the entire night, the Pilots attack failed to put a goal on the board until Nobrega scored an unassisted goal at the 81:48 mark of the second half. Nobrega added another unassisted goal at the 85:26 mark to give the Pilots the final 2—0 advantage.
The Bethel attack overpowered Marian on the night as they out—shot the Knights 30—5. The Pilots had 16 shots on goal compared to Marian’s two which accounted for goalkeeper Cody Troyer’s two saves.
The Pilots will now begin their quest to qualify for the NAIA National Championship when the host the first round of the MCC tournament next Saturday night. Bethel will host this same Knights squad next Saturday starting at 7:00 pm.
