Men's Soccer Blanks Willamette 2-0

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - The Whitman College men's soccer team scored a goal in each half and remained undefeated in Northwest Conference play, blanking Willamette 2-0 on Saturday afternoon at James Hayner Field.

The Blues (7-1-1, 4-0-1 NWC) delivered a dominant first half, constantly peppering the Bearcat goal forcing Willamette keeper Ryan Doyle into a handful of saves. Whitman finally broke through just before halftime beginning with a lofted service into the penalty area in the 40th minute from Lucas McAllister. The ball was cleared off the head of a Bearcat defender but right to Kevin Serrano's foot who finished inside the far post.

The early minutes of the second half were not without its scary moments. Willamette had possession in the Whitman defensive third on several occasions, one leading to a poor clearance in front of the goal from Niclas Isensee that led to Isensee needing to make an excellent save to keep the ball out of the back of the net.

Whitman continued to dominate leading to Sawyer Valero scoring to double his team's lead. Pablo Gonzalez, Jr. delivered a perfect ball out of the back down the left flank ahead of Valero. Valero controlled the pass, took a couple of touches and ripped a shot that beat Doyle low and to the far post.

Lucas Haigh and Isensee combined for three saves in recording the combined shutout. Doyle had a fine outing for the Bearcats, posting 10 saves on 20 Whitman shots.

The Blues return to action on Sunday versus Lewis & Clark. Kickoff is set for 12:00 p.m.
