On Tuesday evening, New Mexico Military Institute hosted Clovis High School at Stapp Parade Field on the NMMI campus, using extra time to settle a 1-0 loss. With the setback the Colts dip to 1-2 overall while Clovis improves to 5-3 on the year.

H1

The Colts found early opportunities but were not able to create any real threat or capitalize. With an early breakaway, Daniel Dosamantes Urbina was able to test the keeper and force a save around the five minute mark. However, the rest of the half the Colts were unable to establish any rhythm as they failed to pose a threat to the Clovis keeper.

H2

After a 0-0 first half, the second half was much of the same. With an excellent performance in goal, Rudolfo Anaya was able to hold the Wildcats scoreless for the next 43 minutes after tallying multiple saves for the Colts.

Late in the half, NMMI earned a free kick in a dangerous area. Daniel Dosamantes Urbina attempted a shot on goal which bounced off of the crossbar, keeping the game scoreless after 80 minutes of action.

OT

In just three minutes of overtime, Clovis passed the ball through the NMMI back line and Damian Navarrette finished a chip just over the outstretched hands of Anaya to secure the 1-0 golden goal win on Tuesday night.
