The Western Mustangs soccer teams hosted the Brock Badgers today at the Hellenic Community Centre in London. After an evening full of back-and-forth action, the women's team came out with a 2-0 defeat over the Badgers, while the men battled for possession throughout the 90 minutes and finished with a 0-0 tie.

Jenna Schroeder and Lauren Winquist scored the goals for Western, both in the first half of the game. Mustang goalie Keltie BIngham made two key saves for her second shutout in a row. The Badgers' goaltending was also impressive as Luciana Di Paolo made eight saves, five of which were in the first 15 minutes of the game. This moves the Stangs to a 6-2-2 record as the team approaches the midway point of the regular season.

On the men's side, both teams struggled to create opportunities for themselves and the game remained scoreless. Western had four unforced offside calls in the first half that hampered their scoring opportunities, while goalie Ivan Skoko faced two shots the entire game. By the end of the second half, Skoko earned his second shut-out of the season. The Mustangs managed ten shots and had nine corner kick opportunities, and their best chance to score came on a penalty shot by Eric Amato. The men now sit at 3-2-3 as they enter a road-game streak in the Toronto area.

The Western Mustangs soccer teams are back at home on October 5, playing the Windsor Lancers at TD Waterhouse Stadium.
