Three Second Half Goals Lift Redhawks Past Wildcats

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Roberts Wesleyan University got goals from four different players en route to a 4-2 victory over Daemen University in East Coast Conference men's soccer action this evening at Redhawks Stadium. The host Redhawks snapped a three-match winless streak and improved to 4-5-4 overall and 3-2-2 in the ECC. Daemen fell to 2-9-1 overall and 1-4-0 in the league.

  • The hosts knotted the score at 1-1 in the 15th minute and the Wildcats would take a 2-1 lead into halftime after freshman Elijah Douglas (Clarence, N.Y.) scored his team-leading fourth goal of the year with just over eight minutes left in the first half. Junior Rayane Baitiche (Thionville, France) assisted on the goal.
  • Daemen maintained its 2-1 lead until the Redhawks struck for two goals in the span of five minutes midway through the second half.
  • Freshman Myles Palmer tied the game at 62:47 and sophomore Luke Hanes scored what would prove to be the game-winner at 67:33.
