SUPERIOR, Wis.  –  The Macalester men's soccer team took a break in conference play, and traveled to Wisconsin, for a game under the lights against UW-Superior. The Scots threatened early, and their precision paid off, defeating the Yellowjackets 3-1. Macalester improves to 8-2-4 (3-2-2 MIAC).
 
First year forward Chris Frantz (Maple Grove, Minn./Maple Grove) set the tempo early, knocking one off the crossbar in the fifth minute. The Scots continued to press, and went ahead in the 24^th minute, with a goal by first year midfielder Elijah Edelman (Portland, Ore./Cleveland). Macalester doubled its lead just before halftime with a goal by junior forward Nathan Corbett (Mequon, Wis./Homestead).
 
In the second half, Macalester subdued the Yellowjackets' offensive attacks. The Scots held UW-Superior until the 87^th minute, when the Yellowjackets cut the lead to 2-1. However, Frantz answered back immediately, less than a minute later, assisted by sophomore midfielder Ondieki Maina (El Cerrito, Calif./El Cerrito), and secured the 3-1 victory.
