WSOC: Vikings surge to victory over Bulldogs

Article Body
The Concordia University women's soccer team allowed four goals in a ten minute spurt letting the Dana College Vikings surge back for a 4-2 victory over the Bulldogs Wednesday night at Bulldog Stadium in Seward, Neb.

The Bulldogs began the scoring just before halftime with a goal by Kayla Geyer off a corner kick by Sarah Hoffman. Concordia extended its lead to 2-0 with a goal in the 71st minute by Hoffman off an assist from Jordan Meyer. Then the flood gates opened as Dana scored four goals in the 73rd, 74th, 75th, and 77th minutes to surge to victory. The Viking goals came from Michelle Mullen (2), Samantha Flowers and Anne Straka.

"Anytime you lead a game by two and end up losing it's tough to swallow," said head coach Rob Giesbrecht. "I never felt we played to our potential; we failed to control the game. We lacked the cohesion offensively to create better goal scoring chances."

Giesbrecht continued, "We need to pick ourselves up and move on. Morningside will be another tough challenge."

The Bulldogs next contest comes against Morningside this Saturday, Sept. 20, in Sioux City, Iowa.
