Stuart Ziegler and the Medaille Mavericks ended their 2009 Soccer Season today with a 1-0 Loss to #10 Carnegie Mellon in the 2nd Round of the NCAA Division III National Tournament.

From the Medaille website:

The Mavericks lost in the second round of the NCAA tournament today, falling to #10 Carnegie Mellon 1-0 in Pittsburgh, PA. The Mavericks came into the match with an 11 game shut-out streak (1,010 minutes) and added another 67 minutes until the Tartans were awarded a penalty shot and Senior Ryan Browne (Pittsburgh, Pa./Thomas Jefferson) kicked it past sophomore Ryan Goettel (Syracuse, NY / Cicero-North Syracuse) for the lone goal of the game and the winning score. Uncharacteristically, the Mavericks were outshot in the contest (15-7) and only registered one of there seven shots on goal. The loss ends Medaille’s bid for a National Championship, and is the first time in school history that Carnegie Mellon has advanced to the Sweet 16. The Mavericks had a historic season in which it saw it’s captain senior Gary Boughton (Lancaster, NY / Lancaster) become the NCAA Division III all-time assists leader (82), Head Coach Dan Krzyzanowicz win his 100th game of his head coaching career, and in which the Mavs won their first ever NCAA tournament game.

Congrats to Stuart, Coach K, and the Mavs on a Great Season! The Mavs ended the season with an 18-3-2 record.
