On Saturday, the 23 of October the Pioneers Soccer team lost in a tough game to Gracelands Yellowjackets.
Due to a communication mistake on the side of the MNU defense, GU scored a quick goal in the 7th minute already. Graceland could manage to carry that 1-0 lead through the poorly played first half. The second half went a bit better for the 'Neers. MNU was dominating Graceland in ball possession and they kept them in their half of the field. Nevertheless Graceland managed to score another goal in the 78th minute which put them ahead by 2. The Pioneers kept fighting and scored possibly the Goal of the year with an overhead volley into the upper 90 by Michael Shadfar. In the end the time ran out and MNU had to take that tough loss.
MNU’s next match will be at 8pm on Wednesday night against Avila University. It will be played in the KC Wizard training facility "Swope Park".
Come and support your Pioneers!!!
