The Butler men’s soccer team fell to 2-8-2 on the season after a 3-2 loss to the SIU-Edwardsville Cougars on Oct. 9 at the Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl.
The Cougars jumped on the board first just five minutes into the game as Lachlan McLean capitalized on a Bulldog turnover just beyond the 18-yard box. The goal was McLean’s eighth of the season.
After several opportunities following the SIUE goal, Butler senior Michael Peay was taken down in the box, earning the Bulldogs a penalty kick in the 35th minute.
