Austin College 0 - 4 Colorado College

We had a great turnout for our Homecoming. We appreciate the support from all our alumni, parents, and fans. It didn't go our way on Saturday, but we had our opportunities.

Alex Dawson (Spring, TX) had an early impact with a shot that went over the bar. Our pressure was good early, but Colorado is a good team and was able to deal. They came back with a serve into our box. There was a big mix in front of the goal, but Matt Dickinson (Paris, TX) wasn't able to come down with it, and they capitalized.

Our defense continued to play strong, but Colorado kept coming. Grant Gibson (Clinton, MS) was leading our backs from center, with Raif Smith (Houston, TX) and Johnny Lara (El Paso, TX) on the wings, but there was just a barrage of shots. Dickinson made 7 saves on the day.

This coming weekend will be our last home weekend of the year. Senior Day will be Sunday, with a cookout by David Norman and the parents. So come out and support us for one last home weekend! Go Roos.
