Late goal by Rangers downs Skyhawks

DENVER, Colo. – Sophomore Gabriel Legendre got the action started early, scoring in the second minute of the match but the Fort Lewis College men's soccer team was unable to hang on. The Regis University Rangers equalized in the 65th minute and took the lead in the 84th, downing the Skyhawks by a score of 2-1 on Friday afternoon.
 
"Really proud of the majority of our group today," head coach David Oberholtzer said. "We had a lot of young guys on the field that played significant roles and did a fantastic job. A number of our veteran guys stepped up into larger roles then they might have been used to and I'm really proud of how they fought and competed tonight."
 
Fort Lewis got the jump early, applying immediate offensive pressure with a goal by Legendre in the 2nd minute; his third of the season. With assistance from Andres Hernandez, the Skyhawks were quickly in the driver's seat 1-0.
 
The FLC momentum settled quick, and Regis began to attack. The Rangers hammered the FLC goal, utilizing three corner kicks and 12 in the opening half to challenge Evan Kowalski in goal. Kowalski grabbed seven saves in the opening half fending off the Regis offense to maintain the lead.
 
The Rangers were finally rewarded for their efforts early in the second half, netting the equalizer in the 65th minute off the foot of Rayhan Carlson-Du Toit with an assist from Michael Jimenez.
 
Legendre and the Skyhawks saw offensive opportunities diminish in the second half, taking just three total shots in the second half with just one corner kick. Fighting off Regis throughout the half, FLC picked up nine fouls bringing the total to 14 on the afternoon.
 
Kristian Hooker and the Rangers found the winning goal in the 84th minute, scoring with an assist from Kevin Cela for the 2-1 lead.
 
Regis out-shot Fort Lewis 24 to nine, including 14 shots on goal to the Skyhawks five. Kowalski finished the match with 12 saves on the afternoon.
