LINCOLN, Neb. (Oct. 22, 2025) - The Buena Vista men's soccer team battled closely with Nebraska Wesleyan on Wednesday night, but it was the Prairie Wolves edging the Beavers with a pair of second half goals en route to a 2-0 victory.

Max Matthies scored on the penalty kick for NWU and was one of two players to register four shots on the night to lead the Prairie Wolves who improved to 5-6-4 overall (3-2-1 A-R-C).

Zachary Sigler went the distance in-goal for the Beavers and made four saves.
