WHITTIER, Calif. – Francis Maxwell scored two goals to lead the Whittier College men's soccer team to a come-from-behind win over Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference foe Cal Lutheran on Saturday afternoon at the Graham Soccer Field.
The goals were the first two of the season for the Glascow, Scotland, native and helped erase a 1-0 early deficit.
Maxwell's first strike came in the 35th minute of an assist from Ian Cromwell. The freshman added the eventual game winner at the 70:45 mark on a feed from Adolfo Santos.
Whittier outshot Cal Lutheran 24-11 for the game and had nine shots on goal to the Kingsmen's four. WC keeper David Diaz made three saves in the win.
The opening goal of the contest came at 11:16 off a corner kick for Cal Lutheran.
With the win the Poets improve to 6-2-1 on the year which includes a 4-0-1 record in SCIAC play. The Kingsmen fall to 1-7-1, 1-5 SCIAC, on the season.
WC returns to action on Wednesday, October 6, for a key matchup against Redlands.
