Macalester (Minn.) spoiled UW-Platteville's men's soccer
celebrations Saturday night with a 2-1 comeback victory.
Prior to the game, the Pioneers unveiled a brand-new banner
celebrating the team's 2008 NCAA III tournament, and had an even
bigger celebration when they were joined by Coach Enzo
Fuschino.
Fuschino, who suffered a heart attack Aug. 1, made his first
appearance in front of the team, with a surprise entrance right
before the banner ceremony.
It looked like the Pioneers would be able to celebrate a win as
well. Chris Brown put UWP on the board first, taking a crossing
pass from B.J. Gottschlich and blasting a shot from 22 yards out.
Just eight minutes later, the Scots' Jake Duscha tied the contest
by scoring in front of the net at 68:32, and Carson Gorecki scored
the game-winner with 5:37 to play.
The Pioneers, now 2-1-1, play host to St. Thomas Sunday at 3 p.m.
The Tommies fell to Loras 3-0 at Pioneer Stadium.
