Soccer falls in 2OT

Wright State’s men’s soccer team fell 3-2 in double overtime to Detroit on Saturday, Oct. 24.

The Raiders (9-4-1, 4-3-1) were in the driver’s seat for most of the match and appeared to be on their way to victory, until a goal by Detroit’s Spiro Pliakos tied the match at 2-2 with just over one minute remaining.

It was Pliakos , again, who put the nail in the coffin for Wright State as his game-winning goal came with seven minutes left in the second overtime period.

Junior defender Kaique Fernandes scored his first goal of the season, on a header assisted by Sam DeRoy 14 minutes into the match. It was DeRoy’s third assist of the season.

Junior forward Eric Lynch’s goal at the 63^rd minute gave Wright State the lead and Lynch his fifth goal of the season.

The Raiders outshot Detroit 23-19 and led in corner kicks 10-5.

Wright State has little time to rest as their second of a three-game home stand brings Bowling Green to Alumni Field Tuesday at 7 p.m.
