Men's Soccer Shuts Out Stevens

Box Score

413The Muhlenberg men's soccer team's 1-0 victory over Stevens was hardly the coast-to-coast win it had last time out, when it scored in the fourth minute en route to a 3-0 shutout of Moravian.

The Mules went back and forth with the Ducks until senior Joey Roberts (right), freshly reentered into the game, took a perfect rolling cross from classmate Travis Wantchekon and slammed it into the back of the net in the 66th minute. The goal was Roberts' first of the year.

Muhlenberg had the better share of chances in the first half, but the second frame saw a more even attack on both sides. Senior Danny Pinto recorded his third straight shutout, making two saves and keeping possession on the Mules' attacking half with his long kicks from the box when the pressure built in the final period.

Pinto's experienced backs made several key plays in the waning moments to keep the home team ahead. Seniors Joe Adams, Oliver Katz and Bryan Attanasio played a physical brand of soccer that made the attacking area of the Ducks a hard place to penetrate.

The win puts the Mules at 4-0 on the season, their best start since 2011.
