A&M Lose On Friday and RCU SuperLiga Tryouts Announced

I just got back from being out of town this weekend. So, here's what happened we missed.

A&M Lose Low Scoring Affair to SIUE


Alabama A&M traveled up to north for Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville's homecoming soccer game. The wet conditions and boisterous crowd of about 1500 seemed to dampen the Bulldog's spirit as they were limited to 6 shots. A&M keeper Paul Musoke made six saves but couldn't keep stop SIUE forward Chris Anzalone's 66th minute rebound sitter that would prove to be the games sole score.
