PEORIA, Ill. - The Massachusetts men's soccer team suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 overtime loss to Bradley in the finals of the Hotels at Grand Prairie Classic at Shea Stadium Sunday afternoon.
Tyler Davis netted the golden goal for Bradley (2-0) 4:44 into the first overtime session when he rebounded a blocked attempt and slipped it by UMass goalkeeper Nick Ruiz.
UMass (0-1-1) took six shots in the contest with two on goal.
Ruiz made seven saves and was named to the all-tournament team. He also stopped all nine shots he faced on Friday in a double-overtime tie. Defenseman Matt Keys was also voted on to the 11-member team.
Keys and Josh Schwartz led the Minutemen offense with two shots and one on goal apiece.
