Trevecca shuts out Covenant 2-0

Box Score

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, Ga. – Bruno De Moraes' goal in the sixth minute would be all the scoring Trevecca Nazarene (9-8-0) would need to defeat Covenant College 2-0 (9-9-1) Tuesday night in a non-conference men's soccer match.

 

De Moraes fired a shot from just outside the box to give the Trojans an early advantage.

 

The Scots would try and tie the match throughout the rest of the first half but Trojan defenders blocked six-of-their-seven shots.

 

In the second half, the Trojan defense would tighten until the 72nd minute when Jonathan Baskin sent a shot to the left post past Covenant goalkeeper Jacob Richter.

 

The Scots would threaten the 2-0 TNU lead just a few minutes after. Following a foul on Samuel Mummert, Covenant's Chris Pifer attempted a penalty kick in the 77th minute. His shot was saved though by Daniel Mudd.

 

Not even 10 seconds later Mudd would deny another shot this time from Ryan Parr.

 

The Scots' last shot on-goal came in 81st minute from Joel Friesen. His attempt was thwarted by Mudd again preservering the 2-0 win for Trevecca.

 

Mudd recorded three saves for TNU while his counterpart Richter collected three for Covenant.

 

The Scots out-shot the Trojans 16-12 and held a 13-4 advantage in corner kicks.

 

The win concludes Trevecca's regular season and they'll play next Nov. 2 at Cedarville University in a Great Midwest Athletic Conference Tournament match at 4:00 p.m.
