HARRISONBURG, Va. - EMU men's soccer celebrated its six seniors Wednesday night as they welcomed cross-town, and ODAC, rival, Bridgewater. 

The Eagles picked up a goal 10 minutes into the second half and EMU wasn't able to pick up the equalizer as BC took the 1-0 win. 

Records: EMU 1-8-6, 0-4-4 ODAC | Bridgewater 9-3-3, 5-2-1 ODAC

Highlights

• The Royals offense came out pressuring BC as Ford DeVault and Ariel Bonilla both picked up shots in the first 15 minutes. BC had an opportunity to take the lead in the 17th minute, but the Eagles shot hit the left post to keep the game scoreless. 
• 23' - Andrew Arledge picked up a save in the 23rd minute on the only on-goal shot he faced in the first half. The teams went to the locker room with the game scoreless after 45 minutes. 
• 52' - Once again, EMU came out in the second half and was able to get offensive pressure on BC. Ethan McGee and DeVault both had shots that sailed wide before Kaden Schrock's shot in the 52nd minute was saved by the Eagles keeper. 
• 55' - In the 55th minute, Eric Ramirez played a pass to Alex Martinez whose shot found the back of the net in the bottom right corner.
