WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – A pair of goals in the game's first 11 minutes were more than enough in the Lycoming College men's soccer team's debut in Landmark Conference action, as it posted a 2-0 win over Goucher College on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 23.
Â
Senior
Obiazie Chinatu (Harrisburg, Pa./Central Dauphin East) finished off the first goal in the sixth minute, drilling a shot into the right side of the net after sophomore
Christian Woobay (Gaithersburg, Md./Quince Orchard) won a header from senior
Dylan Sloan (Baltimore, Md./Archbishop Curley), flicking it to the right for a streaking Chinatu, who drilled the one-timer for the Warriors (4-2-3 overall, 1-0 Landmark).
Â
Five minutes later, Woobay again set up the goal, firing a cross for junior
Jaeden Asare (Letterkenny, Ireland/Perry Hall (Md.)), who fired it into the lower corner for his team-leading third goal.
Â
Goucher (5-2-1 overall, 0-1 Landmark) took eight shots in the game, but senior
Nick Wilke (Mercerville, N.J./Notre Dame) needed to make three saves to earn his fifth shutout of the season and the 14
th of his career, moving into a tie for fifth in program history with assistant coach
Josh Gildea '16.
Â
Ale Sternini had one save for Goucher and the defense also knocked another shot off the goalline.
Â
Lycoming held a 8-5 advantage in corner kicks.
Â
The Warriors are back in action on Wednesday, Sept. 27, when they head to Messiah University for a 7 p.m. non-conference game.
