#8 Men's Soccer stays undefeated with 6-2 victory over Slippery Rock

Box Score SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. - The Golden Eagles continued their success in their first game on the road with a 6-2 win against Slippery Rock Wednesday afternoon.
 
Charleston struck first in the 19th minute when Michael Hagarty slipped a ball across the box for a one time finish by Augusto Maciel, his third goal in two games. Shortly after, freshmen Felipe Antonio took a cross from Leighton Richards and buried the ball in the back of the net making it 2-0. To finish off the half, Lewis Osborne scored in the very last second for a "buzzer beater" goal as he dribbled passed a defender and beat Slippery Rock's goalkeeper to put UC up 3-0 at the half.
 
Osborne followed his goal up to start the second half with an assist to Jules Gabbiadini in the 51st minute. Gabbiadini fished Osborne's cross with a perfectly placed header beating the keeper to his left side. With a 4-0 lead, Slippery Rock found a lapse in UC's defense and got on the score sheet from a good run of play and finish by Peter Boylan. Not long after they struck again as Stephen Donnelly received a good through ball from Josh Allman only to beat UC keeper Justin Bryant. With a score of 4-2, freshmen Kevin Fuecht put his seal on the match when he put away a free kick in the top corner to put the golden eagles up 5-2. To finish off the game, UC capitalized on a bad back pass by SRU for a final score of 6-2. This puts #8 UC at 3-0-0 on the season and ready to open up conference play. Goalkeeper Justin Bryant earned four saves on the night and earn his first win of the season.
 
Charleston is back in action this Sunday against Shepherd University for their first Mountain East Conference match.
