CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa. -  With its 2015 regular season coming to an end, the William Woods University men's soccer team is set for its last non-conference game, as the team will hit the road and pay a visit to Mount Mercy University Saturday. Kick-off is set for 5:00 p.m.
 
The Owls (8-5-3; 4-3-3 AMC), are coming off a 4-3 (2OT) deficit to AMC foe Lindenwood University-Belleville, in heart breaking fashion. It was WWU fourth consecutive game that the team couldn't find the back of the net to end the game in regulation.
 
Despite being outshot 39-12 in the match-up, the Owls were able to take control early by jumping out to a quick 2-0 lead, with an impressive goal from Jesse Jordan and then followed by a goal from Lendell Louis-Jacques. But that didn't stop the Lynxs, as LU-Belleville fought to tie the game up (2-2) right before half, sending the teams into halftime with a new ball game on their hands.
 
In the second half, it was the Owls once again to strike blood first and regained the lead (3-2) with an Alex Severino goal. However, LU-Belleville knotted the game up again with a goal in the 78^th minute.
 
The score would remain the same at the end of 90:00 minutes and we were off to overtime, as neither team could break the tied score and find the game winning goal in the first overtime, 10:00 more minutes were needed. Three minutes into the second overtime is when the Lynxs struck, grabbing the 4-3 (2OT) win over the Owls.
 
Louis-Jacques paced the way for WWU, as the sophomore got things going again offensively, recording two assists and a goal, while Jordan and Severino both collected a goal and two shots on night, and Harrison Bray handed out a season-high two assists.
 
In the net, Bridger Pretz with just his third start on the year, posted a career-high 17 saves on the night.
 
Mount Mercy University is 13-4 on the season, while being apart of the Independent Conference with a 0-1 record. The Mustangs have had an impressive season, which has seen the team capture 13 victories in its last 14 matches.
 
In its last outing, MCC fell 3-4 to a fellow AMC opponent Hannibal-LaGrange University earlier this week.
