MADISON, Wis. -- The University of Michigan men's soccer team lost a 4-1 decision to the Wisconsin Badgers on Friday (Oct. 20) at McClimon Soccer and Track Complex. The Wolverines matched the Badgers in shots (17) in the losing effort.
The Maize and Blue held Wisconsin scoreless for the first half of play but went down 2-0 on consecutive goals by Badger Dominic DaPra at 54:17 and 80:40. Ryan Yoder (Whitehouse, Ohio/St. John's Jesuit HS) retaliated 37 seconds after DaPra's second goal on a setup by Kevin Taylor (Miami, Fla./Gulliver Prep) to put the Wolverines within one goal.
The Wolverine comeback was halted when the Badgers scored twice in the last four minutes of play. Michigan goalkeeper Brad King (Portage, Mich./Portage Northern HS) made five saves in the contest.
The Wolverines will return home to face Drury College on Sunday (Oct. 22) at 1 p.m. at Elbel Field. A free, one-hour soccer clinic for children ages 6-14 will be held prior to the game, beginning at 10 a.m.
