Swenson Propels Battlin' Bears Over Raiders

BILLINGS, Mont. – Two goals from Rocky Mountain College's Sky Swenson lifted the Battlin' Bears over the Southern Oregon University Raiders 2-1 on Sunday afternoon.

Swenson knocked in his first goal in the 24th minute unassisted to put the Battlin' Bears (6-3, 5-1 CCC) up by one. With Rocky out-shooting the Raiders 6-3 in the first period, the lead would sustain the Battlin' Bears through the first half.

Southern Oregon's (5-5, 3-2 CCC) Alan Gaytan found the back of the net for the equalizer in the 73rd minute.

The game remained tied until the 86th minute when Swenson once again rose to the moment. Snagging a ball from a Raider's defender, the junior from Berlin, Germany powered in the game-winning goal.

"It was an exceptional performance by Sky today," said Rocky Mountain College's head men's soccer coach, Richard Duffy. "We put together a strong first half, but dropped off a bit in the second period. We'll look to put together two full quality periods next game."

The Battlin' Bears held a 10-7 shot advantage over the Raiders while Southern Oregon held a 4-2 advantage in corner kicks.

The Battlin' Bears will next host Walla Walla University on October 13 at Wendy's Field.
