Yellowjackets lose heartbreaker in final minute

Box Score

Box Score
 
Despite the Yellowjackets controlling much of the game, their struggles to find the net continued to haunt them in a 1-0 loss to the University of Minnesota-Morris.
 
In an all-around emotional game that saw a total of six yellow cards and a red card, the Yellowjackets battled for that goal to lift them over the edge.  That emotion showed as the Yellowjackets manhandled the Cougars in the shot department 24-9.  Connor Iverson (Ramsey, Minn./Anoka) showed a lot of promise in his second start of the season, coming up with three key saves.
 
However, one of the nine Cougar shots got past Iverson during the most crucial time of the contest.  That time came with only :08 left in the match.  The Cougars prevailed on a booming pass from Devin Chuba back deep.  Ebrima Badgie received that pass in front of the net, putting a header that slipped away from Iverson to give the Cougars an emotional 1-0 win.
 
Iverson came up with three saves for the Yellowjackets while Jacob Borash finished with seven stops for the Cougars.
 
The Yellowjackets (7-5, 1-1 WIAC) will return to WIAC play on Saturday (Oct. 6th) to face UW-Whitewater.  Game time is at 4:30 p.m.
