Ottumwa -- One day after the Indian Hills' women's soccer team posted its first-ever postseason win, the IHCC men's team followed suit with its initial postseason victory. The Warriors blanked Iowa Lakes, 2-0, on Wednesday at the Walsh Soccer Complex in the opening round of the Region 11 tournament.
The win boosts the Warriors' season record to 9-7 and sets up a match against regular-season champ Iowa Western in Des Moines on Saturday. Indian Hills handed Iowa Western a 1-0 loss earlier this month, the Reivers' lone conference defeat.
Against Iowa Lakes, Indian Hills got a goal from Leonardo Texeira just five minutes into the match for an early 1-0 lead. Gustavo Souza assisted on the goal. And IHCC coach Doug Seigle said the early goal was a key. "It was very windy and we got the early goal against the wind," Seigle said. "In the second half, we dominated play and got the insurance goal with the wind to nail it down."
The defenses dominated after Texeira's goal until Jeff Kelly added a late goal, in the 85th minute, for the Warriors. Souza had an assist on that goal too.
Marcus Filgueiras was outstanding in goal for IHCC, stopping four Lakers' shots, and controlling play.
Seigle is looking forward to the match with Iowa Western this weekend. "I'm excited," the first-year Indian Hills coach said. "Our team is peaking at the right time."

Jurno Scores Twice in IHCC Win
Marshalltown -- A pair of first-half goals by sophomore Pedro Jurno stood up thanks to some strong goaltending by Marcus Filgueiras as the Indian Hills men's soccer team completed a season sweep with a 2-1 road win on Wednesday.
The victory put the Warriors' season record back at the .500 mark at 6-6, heading into a key matchup with Iowa Western at home on Saturday.
Jurno's first goal came on a free kick just five minutes into the contest. He lofted a winding attempt past MCC keeper Edwin Jovel to put IHCC on the board.
Jurno added another free-kick goal in the 43rd minute of the opening half, when his shot from just outside the penalty box ricocheted off an MCC player and into the back of the net.
With their 2-0 lead intact, the Warriors packed in the defense in the second half. MCC managed to get to within one goal when Eric Mavakala scored from the top of the box in the 75th minute. Filgueiras made some big saves after that as IHCC held on.
Indian Hills defeated Marshalltown 2-1 in overtime earlier in the fall.
The Warriors had 11 shots in the contest, three each by Jurno and Jules Ruremesha.
Indian Hills coach Doug Seigle said, "It was a great win on the road for us. To get the sweep over Marshalltown and get back to .500 for the season means we're really peaking at the right time. If we can stay on a roll we may put ourselves in a great position for the postseason."
