Oct.17, 2015 - The Concordia-Chicago Cougars headed to Rockford this afternoon, looking to ride the momentum of a dramatic win over Benedictine University earlier in the week. Unfortunately, the Cougars came up short this afternoon by a score of 2-0 against Rockford University.

In a game that saw the Cougars outshoot the Regents by a total of 14-6, the hosts did just enough to edge the Cougars. Concordia-Chicago fired multiple shots off early in the match. Diego Diaz (Cicero, IL/Morton East), Justin Kulpa (Wilmington, IL/H/.S.) and Daniel Hasko (Racine, WI/Racine Lutheran) all put shots on goal, but none of them could find their way past the Rockford keeper.

Rockford finally opened the scoring in the 39^th minute. Javier Acosta would lead Erik Manriquez with a pass that he would bury in the back of the net from 10 yards out  for the 1-0 lead.

That score would hold into halftime but not very long into the second half. In the 50^th minute, the Regents would score an insurance goal. Erik Manriquez would find Anders Wernmuth with a pass that he would put past Jorge Guzman (Cicero, IL/Morton East) from five yards out, giving the Regents all the scoring that they would need on the afternoon

The Cougars [6-8-1, 2-5-0 NACC] will travel on Wednesday to take on Aurora University. That match is set to kick off at 3 p.m.
