La Grande, ORE.- The Mounties came into tonight looking to build off their first win of the season as they were back in action versus the Wildcats of Linfield University. After over a week off, the Mounties came out a little slow but, were eventually able to get it going and ultimately took a 2-1 win. 

In the first half of tonight's game the Mounties struggled to get it going and saw themselves down 1-0 after an 18th minute goal by the Wildcats. After the goal, the Mounties settled back into a groove not allowing another goal for the rest of night. The Mounties had multiple good looks on goal in the first half but were not able to find the back of the net. 

As the second half started, the Mounties came out firing and were finally rewarded when Nathan Wright was able to find the back of the net in the 61st minute. This jolt was all the Mounties needed as they were rewarded again in the 69th minute when Edgar Perez was able to find the back of the net on a spectacular assist from Daniel Kropf. This goal would ultimately be the game winning goal as the Mounties were able to hold off the Wildcat attack for the remainder of the second half.

The Mounties will look to continue their winning ways as they return back to La Grande and take on the University of Jamestown at 1:30 P.M. on Sept. 5 at Community Stadium.
