The NCAA Division III dream of Transylvania and New Albany's Matt Karaffa ended on Saturday after a 1-0 defeat to Washington University of St. Louis in the last 16.
John Hengel scored the game-winning goal for the Bears at 54:21 when he took a pass from senior Marshall Plow and fired a shot to the far corner for the lone goal of the game.
Transylvania, which ends its season with a 15-3-3 overall record, had beaten Ohio Wesleyan and John Carroll University — both by penalty kicks — in the tournament’s first and second rounds last week. It was the Lexington school’s best performance in the tournament to date.
Washington themselves lost to No. 1-ranked Trinity University, Texas, on Sunday, which now progress to the final four at Disney’s Wide World of Sports in Florida this weekend. The other finalists are Middlebury (Vermont), Loras (Iowa) and Messiah (Pennsylvania).
