Raiders fall at Kentucky Wednesday night
10/30/2019 9:25:00 PM | Men's Soccer
The Wright State men's soccer team was held to six shots on Wednesday night as the Raiders were handed a 7-1 defeat on the road against Kentucky.
Â
Wright State drops to 7-6-2 overall with a 3-3-0 mark in Horizon League action, while Kentucky improves to 10-2-3 overall. The Raiders return to HL play this weekend when they host Green Bay on Saturday night. The 7 p.m. kickoff will be proceeded by Wright State's Senior Day festivities.
Â
Trailing by two goals early Wednesday night, Stefan Rokvic found the back of the net in the 18th minute off an assist by Deri Corfe to pull the Raiders within a score. That would be as close as the visitors would get, as Kentucky would go on to extend the lead with two more first half goals and a trio of scores in the second 45 minutes of action.
