The Lynx men's soccer team lost to the Harford Community College Owls on Thursday by a score of 7-0.

"Even though we went down 0-1 in the 15th minute, we were playing good soccer," noted Coach Tom O'Brien. The Owls second goal, which they put in just before halftime, was a "brilliant goal off a header on a corner kick and [goalkeeper] Tim [Wolf] didn't have a chance" to save it.

At halftime, O'Brien switched keepers and put Mason Hale in the goal to give Wolf some time on the field, which is his original role.

"Going into the second half, we came out strong for the first 11 minutes, but they broke us down and scored the 3rd goal," explained O'Brien. Despite being behind, the Lynx continued to press but in the 68th minute, "they scored [goal] #4 which took the wind out of our sails and Harford took control."

"We played 60 minutes of good soccer against a very good team," O'Brien summarized, "but until we play 90 minutes of consistent and hard soccer, teams like Harford will eventually/ultimately make you pay."

The Lynx travel to Keyser, W.Va. on Tuesday, Sept. 7 to take on WVU Potomac State College. Game time is 5:30 p.m.
