Four Poets scored a goal to give first-year head coach Max
Gebhardt his first first career victory, with a 4-1win on the road
against La Sierra University on September 8.
Ben Stockler '07, Jon Lee '07, Reggie El Bassiouni
'07 and Dan Roe '08 each scored goals to
lead the Poets in the 4-1 win. The Poets outshot the Golden
Eagles 28-11. Cody Sowa '10 and
Michael Read '10 split time in goal once again,
each making three saves.
After an uneventful 30 minutes of soccer, the Poets exploded for
three goals in less than thirteen minutes to take a commanding lead
into the break. Stockler got things started with a penalty
kick goal in the 31st minute. Lee added his goal in the 39th
minute and just four minutes later, El Bassiouni found the back of
the net for the Poets. The Golden Eagles got on the board in
the 59th minute on a penalty kick, but could muster nothing
more. Roe put on the finishing touches late in the game,
slipping one past the LSU keeper in the 83rd minute, solidifying
the 4-1 victory.
The Poets next game is on September 14 against La Sierra once
again, this time at the friendly confines of the Donald E. Graham
Soccer Field. Kickoff is at 7pm.
