USF Falls 0 to 1 to UT Thanks to an Own Goal

Not exactly the way George Kiefer and company had planned for.  The Bulls, playing in their second exhibition of the season, could not seem to execute in the box against UT, seeing multiple shots go just wide and missing the mark, but the goal is the one thing the team will look back on and be frustrated about. 

In the 50th minute, Brenton Griffiths was trying to reset and kicked the ball back to Eric Osswald (making the start again in net).  Osswald, not hearing the call from Griffiths, was out of position, and the ball rolled into the net for an own goal and gave UT the lone score of the game as the USF offense could not complete the attack.  Lucas Baldin (2 SOG), Griffiths, 3 shots, and Paul (2 SOG), were all aggressive, but it just wasn't there night as the Rowdies cup goes back to UT.

While the lose is frustrating (darn rivals) the team will correct the mistakes and now must get ready for the start of the regular season as they host Michigan on the 24th at 7PM at Corbett.
