The Richland Center boys soccer team lost a heartbreaker to visiting Dodge/Point on Thursday night. The Hornets held a 2-0 lead at halftime, only to give up 3 goals and lose 3-2 on the opening night of the Southwest Wisconsin Conference.
Richland Center Senior Shawn Adams hit the net around 25 minutes int the first half and later scored on a penalty kick with just over 11 minutes to play before intermission. The Hornets looked strong with a 2-0 advantage after 40 minutes. Dodge/Point, however, adjusted at the break and came back to find the net for the first time when Massimo Robinson scored at 63:40. The visitors tied the contest at 72 minutes when Gael Hernandez Cardoso hit a long unassisted goal. The eventual winner untied the game with just over a minute left when Jaxon Wedig was able to slip in a goal.
Following the 3-2 loss, Richland Center will prepare to play at a tournament in Lodi Saturday.
Dodge/Point also won the JV contest played earlier at 5 pm Thursday. The final was 3-1 with the lone goal from the Hornets coming from Gideon O’Bday.
