OMAHA, NE - A defensive battle took a sudden and decisive turn in a matter of seconds as No. 17 Omaha (6-0-0) scored twice in a 17-second span of the 87th minute to stun Bradley, 2-1, Sunday night at Caniglia Field.
Already riding back-to-back shutouts, the Braves (3-3-0) appeared poised for their third straight shutout victory after freshman Gerit Wintermeyer put the visitors on top in the 78th minute. Wintermeyer made his collegiate debut Friday, finishing with a goal and an assist in Bradley's 3-0 win against Incarnate Word, and he gave the Braves a 1-0 lead Sunday by finishing from inside the box at 77:45.
