MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – A valiant effort by the Blue Raiders fell just short as in-state rival Austin Peay stole a 2-1 double overtime win in Murfreesboro Sunday night. The Governors scored in the 101st minute to end the contest and spoil Middle Tennessee's home opener in front of a crowd of 836 Blue Raider fans.
The scoring got started early when an unlucky bounce off a blocked Governor shot fell to the feet of another Governor attacker and was slotted into the back of the net in the third minute.
