Now 1-3, No. 12 Tigers Fall to Regis 3-0

DENVER - The No. 12 Fort Hays State University Tigers faced off against the Regis University Rangers on Sunday afternoon. The Tigers entered into the matchup on a two-game skid and that form continued as the match resulted in a 3-0 loss.

Fort Hays State found themselves behind early in the match. Just one minute into the contest, Regis' Ben Shepherd slid a ball past goalkeeper Cullen Fisch to begin the score tally. 

With only five minutes remaining in the first half, the Rangers struck again. Parker Klein ripped his shot to Fisch's left-hand side for a 2-0 lead. 

Following halftime, the Rangers marched down the field. Defending inside of their own 18-yard box, the Tigers were backed into an uncomfortable position. Mariano Benitez made contact within the box and was called for a foul. Shepherd stepped up to the spot for the Rangers and tucked his shot away to mark the third goal of the contest. 

Fort Hays State took 10 shots through the duration of the match. Goalkeeper Cullen Fisch was kept busy in net as he faced 15 shots and made six saves. 

Within the 90 minutes, six yellow cards were handed out. The Tigers' Santiago Agudelo, Alec Bevis, and Alonso Rodriguez all had bookings. 

For the Tigers, this marks their second-worst start to a regular season in program history, with 2017 being the only one to top this in those ranks. FHSU started 0-4-2 in 2017, but went on an 11-1 tear over its next 12 and made the NCAA Tournament, finishing the year at 11-6-2.

The black and gold were knocked out of the NCAA Championship tournament in 2017 by Northeastern State University, but FHSU defeated Northeastern State in all three meetings last year (NCAA Tournament included). On Thursday, Sept. 19 the Tigers square off with their long-time conference rival, but this time playing as members of the Great American Conference. The Tigers are 9-7-5, all-time against Northeastern State.

This will be FHSU's first game played in Hays since its victory over Rockhurst in the season-opener and its first game in Great American Conference play. The men's soccer program still holds a 17-game home win streak and will look to keep that alive.
