After dropping a pair of nailbiters to open the season in the Wittenberg Invitational, the Tigers rebounded with a victory over Urbana, 4-1, on Wednesday and a road win over Rose-Hulman, 3-1, on Saturday. While injuries continue to dog the team, the Tigers appear to be overcoming them as they prepare for several weeks of road games.
In the win versus Urbana, freshman Taggart Suddes (Ostrander, Ohio/Dublin Coffman) got the Tigers on the board near the end of the first half, and then sophomore Josh Hains (Granger, Ind./Clay) tallied the first of his two goals in the game just before halftime. Senior Adam Greenwood (Lancaster, Ohio/Lancaster) assisted on both first-half goals.
Against Rose-Hulman, Wittenberg again jumped out to a two-goal advantage in the first half and held on for the win. Sophomore Brian Armstrong (Delaware, Ohio/Dublin Coffman), had a goal and an assist to pace the offense.
The Tigers' last game of the week at DePauw was cancelled due to inclement weather Sunday in Indiana. It will not be rescheduled.
