SAN ANTONIO (Oct. 22, 2015) – The Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) men's soccer team was unable to maintain a 1-0 lead over Louisiana State University-Alexandria (LSUA) and lost 2-1. The Saints gave up two goals in the second half to the Generals for their second Red River Athletic Conference loss.

Head Coach Shane Hurley said, "We need to have more heart. We didn't have any today."

Turning Point

The Saints took a 1-0 lead into halftime with a man advantage after LSUA's Neiko Taylor was sent off for a studs-up tackle on OLLU's Jonathan Garay (JR/Houston, Texas). Despite the disadvantage, the Generals managed to score two goals to walk away with the 2-1 victory.
