Fetterman recorded six saves on the day, bringing his year goals against average to 1.13 per game and his save percentage to 77 percent. He has started every game for the team this year, totaling over 400 minutes of playing time. After taking the lead the Bulls had to hold off the Vikings' late game pressure to keep the slim 1-0 lead. The Vikings pushed defenders down the field in an attempt to level the score, but the Bulls stayed strong through 90 minutes of play and did not allow an equalizer. 'It was a well-focused effort on our part,' Astudillo said. 'Our effort was shown in our ability to hold the lead for the remaining time once we captured it.' The Bulls continued to give their opponents chances on corner kicks. The Vikings had five on Friday and on the season the Bulls have given up 42 while only taking 11.
