DETROIT – The men's soccer team completed its non-conference schedule on Wednesday evening with a 2-0 loss at Marygrove College. Two second-half goals gave Marygrove the win, and dropped the Yellow Jackets to 5-4-2 as they enter their most crucial stretch of the season.

After 51 minutes of scoreless play, Marygrove's Jordan Berry broke the tie as he collected a feed from Jad El-Zein, and sent it into the net for what proved to be the game-winner. MC's Ahmed Almosawi scored the only other goal of the match with a strike in the 71st minute that put Marygrove ahead, 2-0, for good.

With the non-conference schedule finally in the books, the Yellow Jackets are set for a seven-game stretch against HCAC foes beginning this Saturday, and running through October 30.

Defiance will host the Grizzlies of Franklin College (4-4-2, 1-0-1) in a matchup of third-place teams on Saturday, October 9, at 3:00 p.m.
