MILWAUKEE, WIS. – Morningside men's soccer dropped a highly-contested season opener, losing 1-0 as Cardinal Stritch snuck a goal past the Mustangs' keeper early in the second half of play.
Morningside had Stritch's keeper busy until the final whistle, with the Mustang offense taking six shots on goal, led by Max Hartmann with 3, and with Yannik Vogel taking the last Mustang shot with just over a minute remaining in regulation.
Morningside keeper, Bjarne Huth, and the defense were successful at breaking up most of the Wolves offensive attempts, limiting them to only six shots on goal.
The Mustangs are back in action on Saturday, traveling to William Penn University for a 4 p.m. contest.
