Men’s soccer: Scots take down Dubuque with two late goals

Box Score
Dubuque's first half goal appeared as though it could stand up but host-Macalester stunned the Spartans with a pair of late goals, scoring in the 84th minute off a corner kick and again in the 88th minute to avoid overtime.

The Scots are 5-0-1 over their past six matches, allowing just two goals in the process and are now 5-3-1 on the season.

Dubuque took control with the game's first score in the 14th minute and hung in there despite going out-shot by the Scots 17-7 overall and 6-1 in attempts on goal.

Cole Erickson (Jr., Bloomington, Minn. / Jefferson) headed in a Robert Tomecek (Fy., Lisle, Ill. / Benet Academy) corner kick at 83:48 and just like that, the tally was knotted at 1-1.  Erickson, who registered his first career goal to give Macalester a tie with St. Thomas in the MIAC opener last week.

With overtime appearing likely, Macalester continued its late-game heroics when Jac Carlson (So., Clive, Ia. / Waukee Community) launched a bomb from over 40 yards and it got past the Dubuque keeper for the game-winner.  This was Carlson's first career score at Mac.

Goalkeeper Noah Schoenberg (So., Bala Cynwyd, Pa. / Friends' Central)  gains his first collegiate win.

The Scots look to keep their roll going Saturday (Sept. 28) when they host Augsburg in an MIAC match at 7:30 p.m.
