NEWBERG, Ore. - Junior Alex Lehecka (Burlington,
Wash./Burlington-Edison) scored in the early part of the first half
but a late goal by George Fox forced a 1-1 tie in a Northwest
Conference men's soccer game on Sunday afternoon in Newberg, Ore.
Lehecka gave the Loggers a 1-0 lead in the 12th minute after
taking a pass from fellow junior Daniel Lee (Seattle,
Wash./Roosevelt). George Fox evened things up in the 78th
minutes when Brennan Altringer took a pass from Peter Luginbill and
scored to force overtime. Despite 20 minutes of extra play,
neither squad was able to net a second goal as they settled for the
1-1 tie.
Greg Saetrum (Boise, Idaho/Timberline) made four saves, allowing
just the one goal, as the Logger defense prevent many of the
Bruins' 23 shots from finding the target. Jake Maguire made
11 saves for the Bruins, stopping the powerful Logger offense.
Puget Sound will stay on the road next weekend when they travel
to Whitworth on Saturday and Whitman on Sunday.
