COLORADO SPRINGS, Col. – Cal Lutheran men's soccer traveled to Colorado to take on #20 Colorado College in its first of two games on the road trip. The Kingsmen lost 2-0 after the Tigers got off to a hot start, scoring two first-half goals.

Colorado struck quickly, managing its first goal just under four minutes into the match. Cal Lutheran was able to get three shots (one on goal) off in the first 15 minutes, but wasn't able to control the possession for the remainder of the half.

With less than 30 seconds remaining in the first half, the Tigers knocked in their second goal, sending the Kingsmen into the break down a pair of scores.

Cal Lutheran fired off a couple shots around the 60-minute mark, but neither were able to hit as the Tigers played sound defense throughout the game. The Kingsmen recorded six shots (two on goal) without any corner kick attempts.

Kane Reese and Shaw Nishizawa were the two Cal Lutheran players to shoot on goal, while goalkeeper Isaak Tanaka collected five saves in the effort.

The Tigers proved a tough road test early in the season for the Kingsmen, as they entered the contest ranked #20 in the most recent coaches poll.

Cal Lutheran will move on to its next game in Colorado, a neutral-site affair against Whitman, who is traveling in from Washington. The Kingsmen will take on the Blues this Sunday morning on the campus of Colorado College.
