MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – So many motivations. So many emotions.
All to the good for the Central Michigan soccer team.
Alexis Pelafas scored in the third minute and goalkeeper Kristen Knutson made a huge save late in the game Sunday as the Chippewas topped Buffalo, 1-0, in a Mid-American Conference Tournament quarterfinal game at the CMU Soccer-Lacrosse Stadium.
The third-seeded Chippewas (15-2-3) advance to a tournament semifinal on Friday (7 p.m.) where it will play No. 2-seed Kent State at the Golden Flashes’ Zoeller Field.
