Avila Drops Season Finale to William Jewell

Kansas City, MO – William Jewell defeated Avila on Tuesday (Nov. 3) night 8-0 to conclude the season for the Eagles.

Paul Hillbrand replaced an injured Ray Dlugolecki and recorded six saves.

Coach Clements would like to thank the seniors for all they have done for Avila University and the soccer program, “This was a very frustrating season and our seniors hung in there tough and never lost focused. I am very proud to be their coach and I hope our guys coming back can take lessons away from them. It was an honor to be their coach and I want to thank them for their effort and dedication. A fantastic group of young men.”

This concludes the season for Avila as they finish the season 4-13-1 and 1-7-1 in Heart of America Conference action.
