For the third consecutive week, the HU men's soccer team is listed among the top 10 teams in the United Soccer Coaches' North Region Poll. The Pipers, 4-3 overall, are rated eighth - the same position they resided in last week.
Seif El-Fatairy,
Stefan Kinsinger and
Logan Weller tallied for the men's soccer team in a wide-open 4-3 OT loss to St. Thomas Tuesday at Paterson Field. The Pipers who had scored just once in their last three pierced the Tommies twice in the first 13:14 of play. El-Fatairy, a sophomore from Minneapolis, Minn., started things off on the right foot with an unassisted tally 10:15 into the game. Kinsinger then took a feed from
Adam King three minutes later.
UST, rated 16th in the country (and No. 2 in the North Region poll), responded with offense of their own, scoring three times in 21 minutes for a 3-2 halftime lead.
The Pipers roared back in the second half. Weller finished off a three-way play with
Alex Rouse and
Jack Reddan to tie the game with 16 minutes remaining in regulation time. The visitors scored 2:18 into the first extra session to claim the verdict.
Dean Isaacson had five saves in goal for HU, which now stands 1-2 in MIAC play.
Hamline is back in action Saturday, September 29 at St. Olaf. Game time in Northfield is 3:30 p.m.
