MINOCQUA, Wis.---The Marquette Redmen traveled to Minoqua Wisconsin on Saturday, September 17th for two soccer games.

 

In the first game, the Redmen played the host Lakeland Union to a 2-2 tie and won the shootout 4-3. Senior Max Dawson got the scoring started for Marquette off a pass from sophomore goaltender Edan Hautamaki for a 1-0 halftime lead.

In the second half, Lakeland tied the game before sophomore Indigo Catalano put Marquette back ahead with a penalty kick. Lakeland tied the game back up with seven minutes to go forcing a shoot out.

In the five round shoot out, Lakeland took the lead 1-0. Lakeland still lead 2-1 after round two but in round three Hautamaki made a save tying the shoot out back up at 2-2. It remained tied 3-3 after round four and in the fifth round Marquette’s Evan Sysko (senior) scored with Lakeland hitting the crossbar. Other goal scores in the shoot out for Marquette included Dawson and junior Andy Brunswick as well as sophomore Henry Wood. Hautamaki faced five shots in the first half and three in the second half.

 

“Our team played well. Lakeland has a similar playing style to us and I feel we were very equally matched. We had the same outcome last year so it is nice to be on the winning side of these shootouts," Redmen Coach Dan Salmon said.
