HICKORY, NC- Both the men's and women's Soccer teams squared off today against King College from Bristol, TN. The first match was a dominant performance by the L-R Lady Bears, who defeated King 8-0 off two Amber Holt goals. The Lady Bears scored 4 goals in each half, both times scoring in the first 15 minutes. The men's match up was much more competitive, as the home team won 1-0 with a late goal from Nicky Matthews. The Bears almost had an early goal when Oriol Cortes broke on a run into the box, but was taken down by King goalkeeper Richard Masters, who was shown a red card and sent off. Backup goalkeeper Patrick Milfeld stopped the penalty shot of Dave Bailey, helping KC avoid an early hole, the Tornado would have to play a man down the rest of the match. The Bears outshot the Tornado 19-3, but the only one that went in was in the 87th minute. Nicky Matthews cut a ball back inside and beautifully placed a shot just over Milfeld's head to win the game for Lenoir-Rhyne. The Women will play Anderson at home next Saturday and the Men will drive up the mountain to Banner Elk to take on Lees-McRae next Thursday.
