Wichita – Newman Men's Soccer kicked off their 2022 campaign by hosting former Heartland Conference foe Oklahoma Christian at Wilkins Field. Both teams came in to today's non-conference matchup looking to wash away last year's lackluster season but ultimately it was the Eagles who were able to come out on top. The Jets begin the 2022 season with a loss while the Eagles begin their season at 1-0.

FINAL Newman 1 Oklahoma Christian 7

Oklahoma Christian opened the scoring with a goal at the 8:08 and never looked back, adding on 3 more goals before halftime. They tallied on 2 more goals before the Jets were able to capitalize on a Matthew Roberts penalty kick. His goal was the lone shot on goal for the Jets as they struggled to get a shot off the Eagles defense the entire game.

The Jets fall to 5-8-1 all-time against the Eagles and look to bounce back this Saturday as they host CSU-Pueblo at 1 PM.
