Men’s Soccer Bottled Up in Loss at #11 Charleston (W. Va.)

CHARLESTON, W. Va. – Davis & Elkins came out strong against a formattable Charleston (W. Va.) side, but the 11th-ranked Golden Eagles cashed in with three goals late in the second half to earn a 4-0 victory over the Senators on Wednesday night in Mountain East Conference (MEC) play.
 
Davis & Elkins (6-8, 5-8 MEC) had consecutive corner kick opportunities at 36:00 and 36:35 in a closely-played first half, while Richard Glemawu notched three saves in the opening 45 minutes. Possession was relatively even for both sides in the first half, but Charleston scored off the rush as Gabriel Rodriguez finished a Jesus Cabanas pass in the 38th minute for a 1-0 lead.
 
Glemawu kept things within reach with a strong stop on a Christos Charalambous in the 66th minute after both teams traded possession in the midfield to start the second half. The Senators had several second half runs chipped away in the box as Charleston (W. Va.) closed things down on the defensive end.
 
Freddy Tracey converted the insurance marker after burying a cross from Ettore Ballestracci with just under seven minutes left in the contest for a 2-0 lead. Charleston continued the scoring with a penalty kick goal from Adam Burchell at 85:29 for a 3-0 lead before Ballestracci put the finishing touches on the conference contest with a goal for the 4-0 final.
