Momo’s goal, Solecki’s shutout lead Warriors over Alvernia

READING, Pa – Senior Duc Momo (Silver Spring, Md./Bethesda-Chevy Chase) scored his third goal of the season in the 18th minute and senior Kyle Thomas (Bel Air, Md./C. Milton Wright) made a crucial clear with less than three minutes remaining as the 11th-ranked Lycoming College men's soccer team defeated Alvernia University in a MAC Commonwealth game, 1-0, on Saturday afternoon, Oct. 14.
 
With the win, Lycoming (14-1 overall, 5-0 MAC Commonwealth) has won six straight and junior goalkeeper Chris Solecki (Hainesport, N.J./Lenape) recorded his third consecutive shutout and the team's fifth in sixth games as he made three saves. Solecki hasn't allowed a goal in 399:40. It's the longest shutout streak since 2015 when the Warriors had two separate four-game streaks without a goal.
 
The Warriors also clinched a spot in the MAC Commonwealth Championship with the win, as Lycoming has now beaten the bottom four teams in the conference standings to hold any tiebreakers over the three teams that still have three points with four games remaining.
 
Momo scored the game's lone goal off an assist from senior Jordan Logan (Oxford, Pa./Oxford Area), as Momo fired in a shot to the far post for the 1-0 advantage in the 18th minute. It was Logan's third assist of the season and 15th of his career, putting him just outside the top-10 in career assists in program history.
 
Lycoming controlled the rest of the game after Momo's goal, as the Warriors allowed just six shots and held possession for most of the game. Alvernia looked to have a good scoring chance with just under three minutes remaining when a ball was crossed into the 6-yard box, where it bounced and was close to going into the net, but Thomas made a huge clear to preserve the win.
 
The Warriors outshot Alvernia 10-6 with a 9-3 shots on goal advantage.
 
Zach Rider made eight saves for Alvernia.
 
Lycoming returns to action on Tuesday, Oct. 17, when the Warriors host third-ranked Messiah College in a battle for first place in the MAC Commonwealth at 3:30 p.m. at the Shangraw Athletic Complex.
