Box Score

IMMACULATA, Pa.- The Immaculata men's soccer team (2-5-1) was looking to extend their unbeaten streak to four games on Saturday afternoon at Draper Walsh Stadium when they hosted Alvernia (5-4-0) in non-conference play, and after the teams battled to a 1-1 draw through regulation, the Golden Wolves scored the game-winner with 17 seconds left in double overtime to deal the Macs a 2-1 loss.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
-Junior Mark Staudenmayer got the scoring started right away for the Mighty Macs as they pressed the Alvernia defense and forced a turnover 80 seconds into the game, which he buried in the back of the net for a 1-0 lead
-The score would hold until the 64^th minute when Alvernia took advantage of one of their opportunities as Austin Young fired a shot that freshman Mikey Kalpokas saved, but Gabe Sensenig collected the rebound and tied the game
-Kalpokas and the defense did a great job holding the score at 1-1 to push it to overtime
-With 17 seconds left in the second extra session, Nick Sincavage fed a pass to Ryan Kuster who hit a shot into the far side of the net to give Alvernia the 2-1 win
 
BY THE NUMBERS
-Kalpokas was outstanding in the cage, making a career-high 14 saves to keep the Macs in it
-The Macs were led offensively by freshman Alex Potter with three of the five IU shots
 
WHAT THEY SAID
-Head Coach Joe Clementi said: "We asked the team to play with a lower press line, absorb pressure, and play quick on the counter.  While that was effective at times, we weren't clean enough on the ball to get a second break through.  We need to bounce back with a strong performance on Wednesday when conference play starts."
 
UP NEXT
-The Macs host Cairn in the start of Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) play on Wednesday at 4 p.m.
