Men’s soccer scoreless over weekend Roadrunners home record drops to 0-3 after dropping to pair of RMAC foes

By Connor Dockery | Will Satler cdockery@msudenver.edu | wsatler@msudenver.edu The MSU Denver men’s soccer team remained winless at home after losing to Colorado Mesa University, 1-0 and their Sept. 29 loss to Fort Lewis College, 2-0.

Winless at home is not the way any team wants to start their season, especially a team with a newly-hired head coach.

ROADRUNNERS BRIEFS Volleyball takes sole possession of first place in RMAC Five straight wins for MSU Denver has catapulted them into first place in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference standings. They improved to 4-0 in RMAC competition for the first time since 2016, after defeating No. 12 Regis University 3-1 on Sept. 27, and Colorado Christian University 3-0 on Sept.

28. Senior middle blocker Alyssa Kelling was recognized as the RMAC Defensive Player of the Week after her performance in last weekend’s games, with a total of 15 blocks or 2.1 blocks per set. The Roadrunners host Colorado Mesa University on Friday and Western Colorado University Saturday for Homecoming weekend. Friday’s game will be a rematch of the 2018 RMAC title game where Mesa won in three sets. MSU Denver has never lost to Western.

2007 men’s soccer among Saturday’s inductees into Hall of Fame On Saturday, the legendary Roadrunners men’s soccer team that brought in the first RMAC title in program history will be inducted into the MSU Denver Athletics Hall of Fame. Volleyball All-American Stefanie Allison and softball record holder and two-sport star Nancy Kogle will also have their name enshrined to the hall of fame for their remarkable performances while athletes at MSU Denver. The 2007 team also featured Phillip Owen, the program’s leader in goals and points, to this day.

Double overtime the theme of women’s soccer weekend After going into this weekend 1-1 in RMAC play, MSU Denver’s women’s soccer was primed to make the next step to competing for a regular season conference title. A 2-1 double overtime win over Mesa on Sept. 27 on Arantxa Melendez’s second career collegiate goal helped the Roadrunners to their lone victory of the weekend. Jordan Lewis’ second goal in three games was enough to tie a 0-7 Western team, as both sides failed to find a winner through two overtime periods. The Roadrunners shot 39 times at Mountaineers goaltender Kaeyla Noble, but couldn’t find the back of the net. MSU Denver will host Dixie State University who is 2-0-1 in RMAC play on Friday.

Top 5

Horoscopes Capricorn

Cancer

The coming week will be exhausting and filled with ups and downs, but should turn out just fine, so long as you don’t allow yourself to be thrown by the rough patches.

You have been dedicating a lot of your time to your love life lately, which could be good or bad. Though important at the moment, don’t leave your other duties behind.

Aquarius

Leo

As much as you hate to admit it, you’ve not been putting your best foot forward. It’s time to invest some real effort to turn that around, before you find yourself stuck in a rut.

Your ferocity can be intimidating. Keep it in check to not push the intimidated away. Use this to push yourself beyond your limits and rise through the ranks.

Pisces

Virgo

Your week is promising to bring excitement and wonder. With this in mind, keep an open mind to different experiences this week.

Prudence is a great way to live a sheltered life. Challenge yourself to step out of your comfort zone and push your boundaries.

It may come as a revelation, but people are often less intelligent than you would hope. Patience will be the virtue of the week, frustrating though it may be.

Libra Your year is fixing to come full circle this week. While you’ll certainly be looking forward to new beginnings, take the time to reminisce over your achievements.

Scorpio

Let’s be honest, Taurus, you’ve been all kinds of feckless these past few days. Shape up, before people tire of your lazy lifestyle.

You may butt heads more often, but pick your battles this month as you may have to conserve your energy for larger ones ahead.

Gemini

Sagittarius

The Twins are looking at a spell of relative jubilance. Take this happiness with a grain of salt as it may crash all around you if you don’t pay enough attention.
