The Thompson Rivers University WolfPack men’s soccer team knew they would be in a tough match when they hit the field Saturday (Oct 6) in New Westminster, BC. Their opponents, the Douglas College Royals are hosting the 2012 Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association championships and they have ‘loaded up’. Going into the match unbeaten, the Royals gave the WolfPack all they could handle before beating them 1-0.

“I was proud of the way our players handled themselves,” said WolfPack co head coach John Antulov. “ We held them pretty even for most of the match. We couldn’t capitalize on our chances while they did on theirs.”

Antulov felt if his team got more shots on goal and sent more players to the net, they would have had a chance to tie it up.
He is looking for that trait to be more evident on Sunday (Oct 7) when they visit the Kwantlen Polytechnic Eagles in their final road game of the 2012 PACWEST season.
