When the dust had cleared, however, the Tigers were on the short end of a 5-3 shootout and likely saw their 2007 season end with a 0-0 tie at Ohio Wesleyan.

Price scored both goals in a 2-0 homecoming defeat of the Allegheny Gators, bringing him to five goals in the last two games.

The team made its point loud clear, letting the collegiate soccer world know that it does not intend on being forced out of the hunt for the postseason.

Defense won out on both sides as neither team scored in any period.

After two losses in as many days, the Tigers may not have made the desired statement, but they showed without question that they can compete very well with national powerhouse programs.
