Huskies Net One, Drop Bulldogs

INDIANAPOLIS – The Butler men's soccer team was unable to find the back of the net in a BIG EAST battle with UConn, dropping the match by the final score of 1-0. The teams were level at the break, but the Huskies (8-2-4, 3-1-1 BIG EAST) struck first in the 58th minute. The Bulldogs (3-8-3, 0-5-0 BIG EAST) produced two second-half shots on frame but could not find an equalizer.
