"Tonight felt like a potential 'trap' game for us,” said Carthage coach Steve Domin.  “After spending so much energy a man down versus Wheaton a few days ago, coupled with not having the services of a few key players tonight, we knew we could be in hangover mode a touch.  Really, the man of the match was their goalkeeper; save after save highlighted by scoring in the final minute of regulation as an extra man was really the most excitement of the night.  I think our midfield core of Drew Liogas, Stephen Korosis and Taylor Pignataro are really starting to click and were highly effective, but we need to continue to find ways to get in the net." 

Carthage entertains non-conference opponent Rockford College (1-11-1) on Sunday, Oct. 7 in a 3:30 p.m. game, also at Art Keller Field.
