Mountaineers fall to Bowling Green 1-0

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The West Virginia men’s soccer team suffered its second-straight loss Wednesday, March 17, falling by a score of 1-0 to Bowling Green, at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium in Morgantown.

The Mountaineers (2-2-0, 1-2-0 MAC) allowed the Falcons (4-3-0, 2-1-0 MAC) to find the back of the net early, as BGSU’s 12th-minute header goal ended up being the difference in the match. Nathan Masters sent a free kick from the right of the box inside to Jacob Erlandson, who headed the ball into the corner of the goal and out of senior goalkeeper Steven Tekesky’s reach. For the second consecutive match, West Virginia was unable to tally the come-from-behind score.
