Thursday<\/p>\n

UJ <\/a>Women’s Soccer<\/p>\n

Jamestown 2 Midland 1<\/p>\n

Two second-half goals proved to be the margin of victory for the University of Jamestown women’s soccer team Thursday night as the Jimmies defeated Midland (Neb.) University 2-1 in the Great Plains Athletic Conference opener for both teams.<\/p>\n

Jamestown improved to 3-0-0 this season while the Warriors were playing their first match of 2020.<\/p>\n

The visitors claimed the first goal on the scoreboard with a 26th-minute strike by Bailey Locano.<\/p>\n

UJ trailed until the 61st minute when Kamryn Fiscus<\/a> (SO\/Yakima, Wash.) notched her first goal of the season off of a pass from Claire Struble<\/a> (JR\/Murrieta, Calif.).<\/p>\n

The Jimmies were only able to put two shots on goal over the next 20 minutes, but had two other chances sail just wide of the net.<\/p>\n

Struble provided the heroics for the home team in the 80th minute with her second score of the year to make it 2-1. Both of Struble’s goals have been game-winners.<\/p>\n

Not satisfied with a one-goal lead, UJ kept up the offensive pressure and managed four shots (two on target) over the final ten minutes.<\/p>\n

Midland’s last scoring chance came with just over a minute left in the match, but Jimmie keeper Alex Nowka<\/a> (SO\/Anchorage, Alaska) turned the shot aside.<\/p>\n

Nowka finished with seven saves while the Warriors’ Rachel Thigpen made eight stops.<\/p>\n

Shots were 16-12 in favor of Jamestown, as were shots on goal (10-8).<\/p>\n

Jamestown hosts Morningside (Iowa) Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m.<\/p>\n

UJ Men’s Soccer<\/a><\/p>\n

Midland 3 Jamestown 2<\/p>\n

\n

Despite trailing by a pair of goals with just over 12 minutes remaining, the University of Jamestown men’s soccer team showed some resiliency in a 3-2 season-opening loss to Midland (Neb.) University Thursday night at the Jimmie Turf Field.<\/p>\n

Midland took a 1-0 lead on Mario Bueso’s 21st minute goal. It was the Warriors’ fourth shot and third on target against Jimmie goalkeeper Alex Hamer<\/a> (JR\/Solihull, England).<\/p>\n

Just under 30 seconds later, the Jimmies had their first scoring chance of the match, but Aaron Pike<\/a> (JR\/Milton Keynes, England)’s shot was saved by Matthew Ricci.<\/p>\n

Bueso assisted on Liam Brandso’s goal in the 55th minute that extended Midland’s lead to 2-0.<\/p>\n

A pair of Ruben Zepeda<\/a> (SR\/Puebla, Mexico) shots went wide while an attempt by Pike sailed high in the next eight minutes.<\/p>\n

Zepeda got the Jimmies within 2-1 in the 63rd minute, set up by Eric Fairtlough<\/a> (SR\/Varese, Italy), and the home team appeared to have new life.<\/p>\n

Tomasso Visconti put the Warriors ahead by two with his 73rd minute tally.<\/p>\n

With just under six minutes from time, Max Gross<\/a> (SO\/Boeblingen, Germany) found a cutting Pike near the front of the goal, and Pike put the ball in the back of the net to cut the lead to 3-2.<\/p>\n

Neither team had a shot in the final 5:55 and the score ended 3-2.<\/p>\n

UJ had a 10-8 edge in shots while Midland had a 7-5 advantage in shots on goal.<\/p>\n

Thirty-five total fouls were called and eight yellow cards issued in a physical match. Twenty of the fouls came in the final forty-five minutes.<\/p>\n

Jamestown is back in action Saturday hosting Morningside (Iowa) at 3:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
