<p><b><font color="006699">Muskies Men's Soccer Slayed By Knights Of St. Norbert</font><br>
  September 21, 2003</b><br>
  Green Bay, WI-On a beautiful day, the Muskies men couldn't find their offense 
  in a 3-1 defeat to St. Norbert College.</p>
<p>Lakeland came out timid in the first half waiting for things to happen on their 
  own instead of initiating play. The Knights struck first in the 19th minute 
  when they sent home a loose ball in front of the net. Again, in the 37th minute 
  the Knights scored, leaving the score at 2-0 going into the second half.</p>
<p>Lakeland decided to step up the pressure, out-shooting the Knights 15-11 in 
  the second half. The St. Norbert keeper made numerous key saves to keep the 
  Muskies out of the net. Dave Meister (Plymouth, IN) took a rocket of a shot 
  on a direct kick that the Knight keeper barely got a foot on, sending it 30 
  yards in the opposite direction. </p>
<p>The Knights put the game out of reach, scoring their third goal of the match 
  in the 63rd minute. The Muskies still weren't convinced of this as they continued 
  to pressure the Knight's net. Antiseto Rangel (Chicago, IL) struck a beautiful 
  header towards the upper-right corner that the knight keeper tipped over the 
  cross bar. </p>
<p>Finally in the 88th minute Green Bay native Tyler Opichka buried a well struck 
  full volley, sending it over the keepers head off of a Trey Summers assist.</p>
<p>For the game the Muskies out shot the Knights 20-18. Green Bay native and senior 
  goalkeeper Adam Sherwood made six saves, while the Knights keepers were tested 
  for ten saves.</p>
<p>The Muskies will return to action on Sunday, September 28th when they host 
  the Pioneers of UW-Platteville at 3:00 pm. </p>
