ORU at Incarnate Word

[theeagleman5]

ORU Men travel to Texas again to take on Incarnate Word.....Good Guys are 3-1-1 and could use a victory to maintain the Top 25 rating....or they might drop out anyway....not sure who thought it as a good idea play 0 homes games for five weeks......poor scheduling for a team with high potential......

Double win for the ORU Soccer program, as the ORU Men defeat UIW and the ORU Women take down K-State! Both on the road, and both by the final score of 2-1, after ORU trailed 1-0 at halftime in both matches.

The ORU Men receive an own-goal gift early in the second half, and then gift number two as a UIW player is red-carded a few minutes later.  After a barrage of Golden Eagle shots on goal, the winner finally drops in with five minutes left.

The Women trailed 1-0 at half, and K-State changed out their starting goalie at that point, which was a mistake.  ORU earned a penalty kick early in the second half for the equalizer, and picked up the eventual game winner off of a corner kick.  The last thirty minutes was played in a driving rain with gusty winds, but ORU handled it much better than the home team.  Very nice W over a P5 school on the road.

Juan Moreno got that game winner for ORU in the 88th min....huge road win for the ORU men after not being able to come out victorious at SMU and Houston Christian. Good Guys now 4-1-1 and travel to St. Louis next Tuesday night Sept 19th.......
