Rangers Continue Winning Streak with 3-1 Defeat Over Seattle Pacific

Denver, Colo.: The Rangers continued their winning streak on Wedneday as they defeated Seattle Pacific 3-1 at home. Nathan Kafer and Taylor Diem both scored their third goal this season while Justin Ortinau scored his first.

The first half of the game was evenly matched as both teams posted five shots; the Falcons tallied five SOG as the Rangers had three. A fight to keep the ball out of each team's territory caused a physical game on both ends with Regis taking a 1-0 lead in the half. A Falcon foul put the ball into the cleats of Ortinau who sent it sailing into the lower right corner of Seattle Pacific's net.

Regis tacked two more goals in the board in the second half. The first was by Kafer, his third of the season, who was served by Ortinau from midfield. Kafer dribbled in for the goal. The second was scored by Diem. After the ball was fumbled around in the Falcon's box, it found the foot of Kyle Emge who served the ball to Diem.

Seattle Pacific (0-4-1) cut their deficit to two when Tyler Schultz received the ball from Corey McGuire for the goal. However, this goal was not enough as the Falcons fell 3-1 to Regis (4-0).

Up next, Regis will face Colorado Christian in their first conference matchup on Sept. 17th in Golden. Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m.
