Box Score DENVER, Colo. --- The South Dakota School of Mines men's soccer team went up against nationally ranked Regis University Friday afternoon during a Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference game in Denver, Colo. The Rangers proved why they are the No. 10 team in NCAA Div. II soccer, shutting out the Hardrockers, 3-0.

Regis notched its first goal during the 14^th minute when Jacob Lever delivered a shot into the net off an assist from Porter Milner. RU's Joe Mansfield added another goal just before the half to put SD Mines in a 0-2 hole at the 42.47 mark. Mansfield added the final goal for the Rangers in the 67^th minute off a Porter Milner assist to put the game out of reach.

"This is the first time where I think we got outplayed in all aspects throughout the entire game," said Hardrocker soccer head coach Jordan Kadlec. "Any time you get the opportunity to play the No. 10 team in the country, you have to come ready to compete. We didn't do that whatsoever today and got punished."

The Rangers finished the game with 25 total shots to just five by the Hardrockers. SD Mines freshman Justin Barklow paced his team with two shots while senior Erik Fenske, freshman David Grifo and sophomore Noah McKenzie both had one shot.

This week's RMAC Goalkeeper of the Week, sophomore Jack Seifert, had another great effort for the Hardrockers, recording five saves Friday and sophomore Kyle Dolovich had two saves replacing Seifert at halftime.
"Regis was the better team today and showed us why they are ranked where they are," Kadlec said. "Now the challenge is to figure out how we recover from today and come back prepared to fight and battle every time we step on the field."

The Rangers remain unbeaten on the year, posting a 6-0 overall record and 3-0 mark in the RMAC, while the Hardrockers have yet to win a game, with a 0-6 overall record and 0-3 mark in the RMAC.
Next up the Hardrockers will face Colorado Mesa on Sunday in Grand Junction, Colo., in a 12 p.m. RMAC matchup.
