Just 11 minutes later, the Warriors struck again, as junior Luke Klingler (Bloomsburg, Pa./Bloomsburg Area) lifted a perfect corner kick in front of the center of the net and senior Justin Walker (Stroudsburg, Pa./Moravian Academy) connected on his first career goal.
 
Juniata (5-1-1 overall) closed the gap in the 89^th minute, as Steven Stroup got a shot past a diving keeper to make it 2-1, but Lycoming held the team off for the final 70 seconds to score the win.
 
Junior Connor Keenan (Exton, Pa./Downingtown East) finished with four saves in the win. Juniata's Blaine Barsch stopped three shots in 72 minutes before James Johnson stopped one in the final 18.
 
The Warriors get back on the field on Saturday, Sept. 21, when they host Geneva at 3:30 p.m. at the Shangraw Athletic Complex.
