Box Score North Newton, Kan. – Bulldog soccer started 2014 KCAC play with a 2-0 win on Saturday as they took down Bethel College 2-0. MC moves to 5-3-1 on the year.
"Important three points and a good way to start conference play," said Coach Quint. "We controlled things with our possession today."
The Bulldogs bombarded the Bethel goal from the get-go, taking multiple shots in the opening minutes but were not able to put one in the back of the net which led to a 0-0 halftime score. In the second period, the two teams started by trading shots but then a Penalty Kick by Brayam De La Cruz put the 'Dogs on the board with 17 minutes to play. With less than 10 to go, Alex Ronneburg put one past the BC goalie allowing Mac to coast to a 2-0 win.
Kevin Ndongo led both clubs in shots taken with five. Ronneburg saw two of his three tries go on frame to lead the team in shots on goal.
Aaron Parrott tabbed his fifth victory of the season, saving three shots en route to his third shutout.
It's a battle of the top two KCAC clubs on Wednesday, October 8 as No. 13 Kansas Wesleyan University makes its way to the Kennel for a 4:00 p.m. (CT) match.
