LCU men's soccer vs. Emmaus Bible College

[September 12, 2013]  The Lincoln Christian University men's soccer team hosted Emmaus Bible College on Tuesday afternoon. Heading into it, the game was touted as an important one for both programs. Emmaus turned out to be the victor as they scored two quick goals in the first half and held off LCU (1-4) to win 3-0.

Throughout the game, Emmaus controlled the ball and was on the offensive attack more times than not. Emmaus was able to score their first goal in the first half, and then followed it up within a couple of minutes with their second goal of the game.

LCU was never able to catch up as they dropped their second consecutive game to Emmaus. The two teams played two weeks ago, which resulted in a 2-1 overtime loss for LCU.

LCU junior goalie Logan Arney (Effingham/Effingham High) recorded seven saves on the night, while the entire LCU offensive attack resulted in only seven shots being taken on the goal during the game.

LCU returns to action on Saturday as they travel to Grand Rapids, Mich., to take on Grace Bible College, with a 2 p.m. (EST) kickoff.
