Strong Defensive Effort Leads Emory to Third Consecutive Victory

From Emory University Athletics

The Emory University men's soccer team won its third game in a row on Saturday afternoon, knocking off Huntingdon College 1-0. Senior Matt Sherr registered the lone goal in the game for the Eagles.

Right before the break, Sherr connected for his second goal on the season to give the Blue and Gold the one goal lead at the 42:31 mark. Freshman Moustafa Khattab had the assist on the play.

Emory dominated possession all the way through, posting a 21-1 advantage in shots including a 10-0 edge in the first half. The lone Hawks shot came at 78:51 in the game but senior Abe Hannigan was there to make the save. Hannigan recorded his second straight shutout, playing all 90 minutes between the posts.
