COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The University of Dallas men's soccer team (3-2) fell to Pacific Lutheran University (2-1-1) on Saturday at a neutral site field hosted by Colorado College. Dallas was topped by the same result, 2-0, for a consecutive day in Colorado. Dallas is now 2-2 on the six-game road trip and 2-1 in neutral site games. The Crusaders finished 3-1 against non-conference opponents on the docket in 2016 as well.
A goal by Clint Absher at the 26:42 minute mark broke a scoreless match in favor of the Lutes. Eddie Na gave the assist with a cross from the left side. That goal lifted Pacific Lutheran to a 1-0 lead at the half. In the early part of the final 45 minutes, Diego Aceves completed a rebounded ricochet off the left post that came off the foot of an Isak Visser shot attempt.
