BLOOMINGTON, Ill. - Despite a season-high 10 saves from senior goalkeeper Craig Kym, the Illinois Wesleyan men's soccer team dropped a 2-1 overtime decision to Carthage at Neis Field on Oct. 10. 

IWU falls to 5-5-2 overall and 1-1 in the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin while the visiting Red Men improved to 8-4-1 and 2-0 in the CCIW. 

After giving up a goal in the 32nd minute (31:38), the Titans would find an equalizer when sophomore Isaac Albracht netted his first goal of the season at the 39:04 mark. Neither team would find the back of the net in the second 45 minutes of play, forcing IWU to play their third overtime game of the year. Illinois Wesleyan would not record a shot in the extra period before the Red Men ended the game in the 94th minute (93:04) with their second goal of the game. 

Kym went the distance in net for the Titans and junior Brendan McCoy was credited with the assist on the Albracht goal. 

What's Next?
IWU will look to bounce back on Wednesday, Oct. 14 when they travel north to take on North Park in a CCIW contest at 7:30 p.m. The Vikings are 9-2 going into Saturday's action vs. North Central and are ranked No. 15 in the latest National Soccer Coaches Association of America poll.
