LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Nearly three weeks after losing their season-opening game 1-0 against Lake Forest, the Ripon College men's soccer team again played the Foresters, falling by an identical 1-0 score. LFC also held a 16-5 shot advantage.
The game's only goal came in the 40th minute, as Erik Truitt broke a scoreless tie just before halftime. That marked Truitt's third goal of the season, with the assist credited to Bradley Van Egeren.
