The  Golden Eagles gusto was evident as they stepped out onto the field.  However, the  Golden Eagles quality of play changed and the Golden Eagles entered halftime with a score of 0-1, the first goal taking place 24 minutes into the half. On the sidelines, the Eagles cheered their teammates on to the end. Coach Dan McCallister said, "we kept on fighting to the end. That is something to be proud of." The Golden Eagles were outshot 10-7 by the Panthers.  During the second half, the Golden Eagle's gave up two more goals. Despite the score, the roar coming from the sidelines remained constant, as teammates of the Golden Eagles rooted each other on.

Currently, the Panthers show a leading record in the WHAC league. Come support the Golden Eagles on September 19th at 12:00pm as they take on Indiana Tech at home.
