From University of Rochester Athletics
It was all Yellowjackets in a men's soccer contest between
the University of Rochester and St. John Fisher College, with UR
coming out with a 5-0 victory at Growney Stadium on Tuesday
evening.
#15 ranked Rochester (5-1-2) won its second straight game and
remains unbeaten in its last seven contests this year. St.
John Fisher drops to 2-6-1 with the loss.
The five goals put up by the Yellowjackets are a season high
while goalkeepers Michael Shatkin and Marshal Davidson combined on
UR's fifth shutout and fourth in the last five games. Shatkin
made a total of five saves on the night while Davidson played the
final 10 minutes and was not challenged.
The Yellowjackets got the scoring started in the 15th minute
when senior Jack Thesing headed in a cross from classmate Shane
Dobles into the top corner of the net past Cardinal keeper Josh
Klein. That would be the only scoring of the half as Klein
ended up making five of his eight saves in the first 45
minutes.
Early in the second half, senior All-American Alex Swanger
scored his first of the season, heading in a corner kick from
Dobles.
Rochester then put the game away with three late goals, all
coming after the 75th minute. Junior Tyler Buck scored just
29 seconds apart in the 77th minute. His first score came as
a header off a service from the right wing from Seth
Davis-Brown. The second tally was unassisted. Tuesday
was Bucks first career multi-goal game in a Yellowjacket
uniform.
The final tally came with 2:11 left on the clock from senior
Braden Adcock. After receiving a pass from Michael Cross,
Adcock made a nifty play juking the goalkeeper and recording his
first collegiate goal.
