The Western Michigan Christian boys soccer team closed out its season with a disappointing 1-0 overtime 
shootout loss to Buckley on Tuesday in the Division 4 regional semifinals at 
Cadillac High School.
The Warriors outshot Buckley by a 38-2 margin, but failed to find the net in regulation and two 10 minute overtime periods, which forced the game to be decided by a shootout.
The Warriors were outscored 4-1 during the shootout. Evan Fles scored the lone goal for Western Michigan Christian.
“With a team this talented we should not have been defeated in this way,” said a disappointed WMC coach David Hulings. “These seniors are amazing young men who have carried themselves so well this year.”
The Warriors finished their season with a 20-3 record, a Lakes 8 Conference championship and a Division 4 district title.
