WATERLOO, Iowa – The Northeast Community College men's soccer team had its season come to an end on Saturday at the hands of Hawkeye Community College.
The Hawks (7-8, 6-7 ICCAC) held strong through the first half, but ultimately gave up three goals in the second half, falling 3-1 in the Region XI semifinals in Waterloo, Iowa.
Hawkeye was first on the board in the second half, but David Evans Jr. (Lakewood, Colo.) quickly put the Hawks on the scoreboard with a goal in the 41st-minute. Both teams traded shots until the 73rd-minute when the RedTails had a shot deflect off a player and into the Hawks' net. The RedTails punched in an insurance goal in the 80th-minute to seal the victory.
"I am so impressed with what these guys have done this season," head coach Chad Miller said. "Going from how they started to how they finished the season was incredible. Being picked in the preseason as one of the bottom teams, to earning the third seed in the Region XI Tournament and making it to the semifinals, is an incredible feat. I couldn't be prouder of how they fought every game."
