Men's Soccer Falls to No. 3 Lindsey Wilson College

COLUMBIA, Ky. – Playing in temperatures that hovered around the freezing point, the University of Mobile Rams lost 4-0 to 3^rd-ranked Lindsey Wilson College Thursday night in Columbia, Kentucky. 

Despite the cold weather, the winner of six of the last eight NAIA National Championships were able to turn up the heat on Mobile out-shooting them 17-3 for the game.  Sophomore mid-fielder Brian Ombiji scored a goal and recorded two assists in leading Lindsey Wilson to a victory over the defending national champions. 

Trailing just 1-0 at halftime, the Rams came out in the second half looking to tie the score.  However, just one minute in, Ombiji got behind the Ram's defense and beat Mobile goalkeeper Tommy Sarkinnen with a shot to the near post.  Sarkinnen appeared to make the save but the ball came loose and trickled into the goal pushing their lead to 2-0.

With just five minutes remaining in the contest, Yann Japaud scored the final two goals of the match just 34 seconds apart sending Lindsey Wilson to a 9-1 record on the season.

Mobile falls to 6-3 on the season with one game remaining on the current three-game road trip.  The trip comes to a close on Saturday, Oct. 4 when the Rams square off against Mid-Continent College at 2 p.m.
