Men's Soccer Wins Shootout At George Fox

NEWBERG, Ore. - The Whitman College men's soccer team staged a dramatic comeback to defeat George Fox 4-3 on Sunday afternoon at the Austin Sports Complex. The Blues (7-0-3, 6-0 NWC) remain undefeated in Northwest Conference play and stay atop the league standings. 

Remy Marcks sparked the rally with Whitman's first goal and later assisted on the gamewinner in the second half, as the Blues battled back from a three-goal deficit in the opening half.

The match saw George Fox take control early, jumping out to a 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Isaac Williams and Quincy Walker. Down 3-0 after another Williams strike in the second half, Whitman responded decisively. Marcks entered the match in the 35th minute and quickly made an impact, scoring unassisted to cut the deficit to 2-1. 

Alex Evans then responded minutes later to tie the game, followed by Lucas McAllister's strike that sent Whitman into halftime with a 3-2 advantage.

After George Fox managed to equalize in the second half, Whitman pressed forward. In the 67th minute, Marcks set up Fernando Lopez-Vega for the gamewinning goal, putting Whitman ahead for good. 

Niclas Isenee kept a clean sheet in net for the Blues the rest of the way as his team walked out with a barnburner victory.

The Blues return home this weekend for a pair of tough NWC matches, most notably Pacific Lutheran who sits just behind them in the league standings.
