Lobs Lead to Goals as Ruiz scores first college goal in 1-1 Tie with Rose-Hulman

(TERRE HAUTE, Ind.) - Following a 6-3 win over Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) member Mount St. Joseph University on Friday night, the Quakers made a quick turnaround on Sunday to face off against the HCAC's defending champions in the Rose-Hulman Fightin' Engineers, where the Quakers leave with a 1-1 draw.

With a continuous first-half attack, Rose-Hulman's goalie, John Biederstedt, faced six shots on goal, saving the first five until the final minute of the first half when Jose Ruiz put a shot in over Biederstedt's head from about a hundred feet out, following a Noah Lee steal at midfield, marking Ruiz's first collegiate goal.

However, at the opposite end of the field, Oliver Metz faced zero shots on goal through three-quarters of the game, as a relentless back line play by Wilmington nullified Rose-Hulman's attack.

Metz saw his first shot on goal in the 64th minute, and it was not long until Rose-Hulman's Eli Miller lobbed a shot in from the left corner of the penalty area over Metz and a handful of defenders. Metz saw five shots on goal throughout the game, making four saves.

Notables
  • Jose Ruiz had his first collegiate goal on his only shot, coming off the bench.
  • Parker Burke and Randy Harris each had two shots on goal.
  • Noah Lee had the lone assist.
  • Ten players had shots, and six had shots on goal for the Quakers.

What's Up Next
The Quakers (1-0-1) return home to face another HCAC member, Anderson University (Ind.), on Tuesday night at 7:00 p.m. The Quakers lead the series 4-1-2, and lost on the road 1-0 last September against the Ravens.
