The Wisconsin men's soccer team (1-6-1) fell to in-state rival Marquette (3-3-2) Tuesday night. The 1-0 loss marked the first time Wisconsin has lost to the Golden Eagles since 2003, and only the second time in the past decade. Tuesday's one-goal loss is just another in a rough start to the Badgers' season.
Lead by freshman midfielder Nick Janus, Wisconsin started the game strong, taking the first two shots. Both Janus and and freshman defender Luke Goodnetter produced attempts with headers, and the Badgers were able to force Marquette's keeper David Check to make saves on each.
Unable to keep the pressure on the Golden Eagles, Wisconsin only forced Check to make one more save for the remainder of the game. The Badgers would end the game with six shots, three on goal. Janus had three of the Wisconsin shots, putting two on net himself. Unable to break the Marquette defense, the Badgers suffered their fifth shutout of the season, and their fourth consecutive. In those five games, Wisconsin's record stands as 0-4-1.
On the defensive side, freshman goaltender Max Jentsch started for Wisconsin. In the first start of his colligate career, Jentsch made three saves and turned in a solid performance in net. Despite his effort and general success, Maquette was able to beat the young keeper in the 37th minute.
Because of a UW penalty, the Golden Eagles took a free kick just outside of the 18-yard box. Marquette's Calum Mallace scored the game's first and only goal off of the kick as Jentsch was unable to make the save. The goal was Mallace's third of the season.
A loss to Marquette was the last thing that head coach John Trask and the team needed. With this match being the last non-conference game before entering Big Ten play, the Badgers have a challenging road ahead of them as they get back to practice.
""Tonight's result was disappointing,"" Trask said. ""We need to get back to work at practice this week as we have a tough task ahead of us at Indiana on Sunday. We need to play better as we move forward, especially entering Big Ten play.""
Although Wisconsin got solid goaltending from Jentsch on Tuesday, the Badgers will need to make significant improvements on both sides of the ball between their return to practice on Wednesday and this weekend's matchup.
Wisconsin opens its Big Ten season on the road against Indiana Sunday afternoon. The Hoosiers enter the game with a 4-3-0 overall record, 1-0-0 in Big Ten play. The Badgers are back at home on Wednesday, Oct. 6 when they host the University of Northern Illinois.
