Riley Mahn scored the match’s first goal in the 54th minute of the second half to lead the Truman Bulldogs to a 2-0 win over the Missouri Southern Lions Friday afternoon (Oct. 23) at Fred G. Hughes Stadium. Mahn’s score came on an assist from Katie Reuck off a keeper deflection at the 54:42 mark of the second half.
