Tuesday was a long day for all of us. We left campus and headed for the 3 hour bus ride around 3 pm. Game time was set for 7:30, and we were ready to finally play a match.
We started the game strong and played well in the first half. Captain and Senior, Miles Vaughn put a goal away from beyond the 18 to give us a 1-0 lead into half time. The second half proved to be a test for us. ETBU scored 2 goals on us in the second half. The game ended in a 2-2 tie. We thought we should have won that game, but ETBU played well and was a good opponent.
Our freshman have proven to be a great class. Chris Stein served a corner and found Kyle Fitzpatrick for the game tying header. The goal went into the statistics as :07 seconds after ETBU scored on us. Coach Hudson checked the NCAA D-III records, and that goal puts us into the record books!!! Austin College and ETBU will go into the books as second fastest consecutive goals scored by opposing teams. Awesome.
We open Conference play this weekend with Millsaps on Friday at 2pm. Go Roos.
