Romero Scores Three, Blues Dominate Pacific

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - Led by Edwin Romero's three goals, the Whitman College men's soccer team rebounded from Saturday's loss to overwhelm Pacific (OR) 5-0 in Northwest Conference action on Saturday at the Whitman Athletic Complex.

Colby Ramsey was perfect in goal for the Blues (7-3, 3-3 NWC) in dealing with five Boxer shots and turning away three of them. Zach Aderinto and Luis Rojas-Celis split time in net for Pacific.

The Blues opened the scoring with a goal in the 19th minute. Christian Gomez won possession in the center of the field and attacked the Boxer defense before playing a through ball to Oscar Harding down the left flank. Harding delivered a perfect cross to Riley Kraft who settled it and slotted his shot inside the far post to put Whitman up.

Romero scored his first when he put the Blues ahead by two with his goal just moments later. Adam Reid lifted a ball from the left flank into the Pacific penalty area. After a contest between Kraft and his Boxer defender, Romero found the loose ball scored on a well struck ball to the far post.

Romero and the Blues poured it on in the second half. Romero scored his second shortly after halftime then capped the scoring when he netted a penalty kick in the 69th minute.

The Blues play only once next weekend when they host Whitworth on Saturday, Oct. 9 at 2:30 p.m.
