Cody Weber '13 hauls in the second of his two TDs on Saturday |
The final three periods saw the Pioneers fail to score again, while the visiting Knights chipped away and tied the game with 11 minutes left in regulation, sending us into overtime where we failed to match Carleton's first TD. It was a tough way to start the year, but there were so many positive aspects of the game that it's hard to be too down right now. We are already looking forward to next weekend where we have a chance to redeem ourselves at Rosenbloom Field against Illinois College in the Midwest Conference opener.
