Box Score OREM, Utah - The University of Evansville men's soccer team battled in its final match in Utah, falling to UNLV, 4-1, in Orem, Utah on Sunday afternoon.

"We played two very good teams this weekend that play two distinct styles and they beat us both in the same way," said Aces' head men's soccer coach Marshall Ray. "It's going to be a good learning experience for us. We have a lot of work to do on the training ground to get ourselves where we need to be."

The Rebels scored first on a pair of goals in quick succession. In the 15th minute, Marco Gonzalez opened the scoring in the match, recording the first goal of the game following a ball played over the top that Gonzalez finished. One minute later, Gonzalez scored again, this time on a pair of assists as he found the end of a cross.

Evansville tallied its first goal of the season in the 26th minute. After a header from sophomore Adam Snow, junior Simon Waever headed the ball back to Snow who slid towards the goal inside the six-yard box and slipped the ball into the back of the net to draw one back for the Aces.

Seven minutes into the second half, UNLV pushed its lead back to two goals on Gonzalez's third goal of the morning in the 52nd minute. The Rebels added their fourth goal in the 76th minute as UNLV captured the 4-1 win.

For the Aces, Snow and freshman Logan Muck led the way as each recorded a shot on-goal in the match.

The Aces close out their season-opening three-game road swing on Friday as Evansville travels to Charleston, Ill. to take on Eastern Illinois at 4 p.m..
