ANNVILLE, Pa. – Senior Tanner Fonjweng (Bear, Del./Glasgow) stepped into a penalty kick with 5:48 remaining to lift the Lycoming College men's soccer team to a 1-0 conference win over Lebanon Valley College to clinch a spot in next week's MAC Commonwealth Championship on Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 30, at Herbert Field.
 
The Warriors (11-6 overall, 5-2 MAC Commonwealth) forced the game-winning play in the 85^th minute when senior Nick Thornton (Wexford, Pa./North Allegheny) sent a cross into the penalty area, where it skidded up off a Lebanon Valley defender's hand, meaning the Warriors were awarded a penalty kick, which Fonjweng converted for his third goal of the year.
 
Lycoming moved into second place in the conference standings with the win, having accumulated 15 points with one game remaining in the conference schedule. With a win over Hood on Saturday in the season finale, the Warriors can secure the No. 2 seed in the conference championship tournament for the third year in a row.
 
With just over two minutes to play, Lebanon Valley nearly got the equalizer, with a cross finding the right side of the goalbox, where Lucas Strange was waiting, but sophomore Zack Donoway (Newark, Md./Snow Hill) stuffed the shot and the rebound was cleared away. Lebanon Valley kept pressuring, but the Warriors cleared away the last chance effort in the box without allowing another shot.
 
Donoway made two saves off 12 Flying Dutchmen shots while Sean Quirk stopped four of Lycoming's 14 shots in the contest.
 
Lycoming will host Hood College on Saturday, Nov. 2, at 12:30 p.m. at UPMC Field in the regular-season finale.
