COMMENTS FROM COACH REUTEMANN: 

"This was one of the hotter temperature college soccer games that I can remember in September. Being close to ninety-five degrees the small field demanded a lot physically to keep a result. Our backline and goalkeeper came up with very disciplined moments to carry us through. From the first half to the second half our focus all around was much improved on both sides of the field. Freshman Jared Daragjati gave us crucial minutes in his college debut as striker, to positively impact the game. It will be a quick turn around with Saturday's match only a few days away. We will have to keep our mentality strong as a group in the moments ahead at home."

UP NEXT FOR THE BRONCOS

The Delhi Men's Soccer team will head back home to host Marywood on Saturday, September 9th.
