NEWBERRY, S.C. – The No. 22 Carson-Newman
College Men’s Soccer Team (11-3-1, 7-1-0 SAC) needed an extra
period, but picked up the 2-1 victory over Newberry College
(3-13-2, 2-6-0 SAC) Saturday afternoon to win its SAC-record
seventh league regular season championship.
The Eagles win the league crown thanks to Wingate’s 2-1 win
over Lincoln Memorial Saturday.
Just before the first half was called, sophomore forward
Robert Hill (Middlesbrough, ENGLAND) tallied his
team-leading 13th goal of the season as he took a pass from senior
forward Omar Cooke (Roanoke, Va.) and tapped it
into the back of the net.
Newberry equalized the match at one 9:54 into the second period as
Ben Mottel converted a penalty kick for the Scarlet-and-Gray. The
score would remain 1-1 for the remainder of regulation to force the
extra period.
Early in the 94th minute, freshman midfielder Daniel
Tackling (Norwich, Conn.) served a corner kick that
deflected off of Hill and fell in front of freshman defender
Adam Thomas (Morristown, Tenn.). Thomas finished
the play to seal the match for the Eagles.
C-N junior goalkeeper Jordan Moore
(Hendersonville, Tenn.) picked up the win in goal with eight saves
while Newberry’s Joel Johnson suffered the loss despite
stopping five shots.
As the #1 seed in the 2009 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference
Tournament, Carson-Newman will face Catawba in the tournament
quarterfinals on Tuesday at McCown Field with kickoff time yet to
be determined.
