Trailing at halftime, the nation's third-ranked soccer team displayed its savvy and skill down the stretch and went on to defeat the upset-minded Jackson Polar Bears, 2-1, on Saturday night.

Taking control of the final eight minutes, Coach Mike McLaughlin's Saint Ignatius Wildcats tied the score on a goal by senior defender Greg Kurtz and, with just 14 seconds remaining, junior forward Matt Foldesy sent home his eighth goal of the season. Foldesy's game-winner ties him with senior midfielder Yianni Sarris for the team lead.

Up next for the 10-0 Wildcats is Tuesday's encounter with the Twinsburg Tigers at 8 p.m. on Wasmer Field.
