Toledo, OH---Sean Bucknor and Zane Polack each scored a goal as the Express men's soccer alumni team defeated the Express men's soccer team 3-1 on Saturday. Tyler Kortokrax scored the lone goal for the Express men's soccer team, who trailed 1-0 at halftime following Bucknor's goal midway through the first half. Kortokrax's goal had tied the game before an own goal and Polack's goal helped the alumni side. Michael Mason (2003-04) played the entire game in goal for the alumni team, while Joshua Kleinow and Ryan Wicher each played half the game in goal for the current Express team. Notes Nearly 20 former players took part in
Saturday's scrimmage, including former assistant coach Jeremiah McNutt.
August 10, 2013
Bucknor is the single season and career scoring leader in Express men's soccer history. He scored 28 goals in each of his two seasons, and he earned NJCAA All-American honors in both years. Polack, just like Bucknor, played for the Express in the fall of 2006 and 2007. The 2007 team finished 15-5-2 and advanced to the Region XII championship before falling in PKs to Macomb Community College. The 2013 Express men's soccer team will host Siena Heights University on Aug. 15 at 4 p.m. in their next scrimmage. They open their regular season Aug. 24 at Lake Michigan College.
