La CROSSE, Wis. – The Dakota Wesleyan University men's soccer team scored its first goal since the season opener, but failed to hold the lead in a loss to Viterbo University Thursday in La Crosse, Wis.
The Tigers (1-3) got on the board in the first half with a goal from senior Adam Jahnel (Blair, Neb.) in the 29th minute. The V-Hawks wasted no time getting back to even with a goal from Corey Leitzio just 40 seconds later.
Viterbo's Sebastian Flores found the back of the net in the 76th minute to put the home team up. The V-Hawks (4-5) held on for the 2-1 win, handing DWU a third straight loss.
