Box Score DEERFIELD, Ill. - For the second time this season the TIU Men's Soccer team was unable to find the back of the net, as the Trojans dropped their third match of the season 2-0 to the #16 ranked Campbellsville Tigers on Saturday afternoon.

With multiple chances in the opening 20 minutes the Trojans were unable to get passed the Tiger defense, who limited TIU to just 2 shots on goal in the first half. The bet scoring opportunity came off the head of Senior Wesley Ditchfield, who nearly put the Trojans up 1-0 but saw his attempt saved on a diving play by Tiger Goalkeeper Andreas Nota.

Campbellsville would eventually score midway through the first half, as poor marking on a cross into the box left Ignacio Mangada all alone for the easy finish. Mangada would add another goal late in the 2nd half to make it 2-0 and eventually sealing the game for the Tigers. The Trojans had their opportunities to cut into the Tiger lead, but were unable to put anything away.

Trinity International will hit the road for the first time this season as they head out to Winona Lake, Indiana to take on Grace College Wednesday afternoon.
