William Woods Defeats Eagles 2-0

Kansas City, MO - Avila University saw its two match winning streak ended by William Woods (MO) on Saturday (Sept. 19th). The Owls scored a goal in each half although the Eagles had more shots (12-11) along with 14 corner kicks.

The game was very evenly matched and the Eagles played with good passion but needed to be stronger in the box according to Coach Clements, "We gave up two goals inside of our box and had plenty of opportunities to score but just could find the net. It comes down to having the heart and desire to stop the opponent from scoring and to score yourself on your offensive end. I am happy with the chances we created, now we just need to put them away."

Avila was led in shots by Roberto Camacho with six while Ben Dlugolecki had three to pace the Eagles.

Ray Dlugolecki played all 90 minutes in the net recording one save on four shots.

The Eagles (2-5) will look to rebound when they travel to North Newton, KS to play Bethel College in a non-conference match-up on Tuesday (Sept. 22). The match is set to begin at 7 PM.
