No. 22 Carroll defeats No. 16 UW-Oshkosh, 2-1
Oct 24, 2009
Carroll University, ranked No. 22 in last week's National Soccer Coaches Association of America Top 25 men's soccer poll, knocked off No. 16 UW-Oshkosh on Saturday to improve to 14-1-2 on the season.
Freshman Doug Johnson gave Carroll an early 1-0 lead when he slotted home a flick from senior Andy Prentice that was served by senior goalkeeper Stanislaw Miaskowski in the sixth-minute. Prentice then hit what would turn out to be the game winner in the 29th minute from an assist by senior Craig Carlson.
The Titans pulled to within 2-1 with a goal in the 71st minute but Carroll's defense thwarted any further scoring opportunities down the stretch.
Carroll, who wrapped up their second consecutive Midwest Conference Championship on Wednesday night versus Beloit College, returns to action on Saturday, Oct. 31 when they travel to St. Norbert College for the regular season finale at 1:30 p.m.
