After a rough start to the season, the Buffaloes continued their winning ways this weekend on the road.

On Friday, the Buffs took on St. Mary’s in San Antonio. The team didn’t wait long to get on the scoreboard as Colin Bjostad used Lukas Garcia’s corner kick to get the ball into the net 37 minutes into the first half. WTAMU didn’t back off after the first goal, as Rodrigo Morin scored with 2:17 left in the first half.

WT continued to power on in the second half. Conrad Grouldbourne scored 15 minutes into the half to up the score to 3-0. The Rattlers wouldn’t give the Buffs a shutout, scoring with 14 minutes left to play to take the score to 3-1. The Buffs had 16 shots in the game compared to St. Mary’s six.

On Sunday, the team was in Laredo to take on Texas A&M International University. The first half was uneventful with just 11 combined shots, sending the teams to the locker rooms tied at 0-0.

The second half saw Conrad Grouldbourne put the first number on the scoreboard 24 minutes into play off of Aidan Hamman’s corner kick. TAMIU wouldn’t go away that easily and scored three minutes after Grouldbourne’s goal, tying the game.

With no goals to break the tie during regulation, the game went into overtime. But even with WT doubling the Dustdevil’s shots 4 to 2, neither team could find the net and the game ended with a 1-1 tie.

“I feel a lot better about the season after this weekend, we played well in both games and are continuing to improve,” forward Wayne Bruton said. “Our record is getting better also, which is giving the team a huge boost.”

While the Buffs’ season record is 5-6-1, their record over the past six games is 4-1-1. They return to action Oct. 21 against Northeastern State in Tahlequa, Okla. at 7 p.m.
