Owls Blanked by WNEC 3-0

LUDLOW, Mass. - The Keene State men's soccer team saw its modest two game wining streak come to an end with a 3-0 shut loss to Western New England College in a non-conference match played at Lusitano Stadium.

The Western New England College men's soccer team ran its unbeaten streak to 15 with the victory. The Golden Bears, ranked 14th nationally and second in the region, improved their record to 11-1-4. The Owls fall to 5-8-3.

Freshman midfielder Austin Santolini (Agawam, MA) earned the game-winner with his first collegiate goal in the 43rd minute. Junior midfielder David Fitzpatrick (Burnt Hills, MA) had the assist.

Senior forward Dale Totman (Conway, MA) upped the margin to 2-0 with his team high ninth goal of the season in the 49th minute with an assist from junior midfielder Justin Martins (Ludlow, MA).

Martins then closed out the scoring with an unassisted goal (his fifth of the year) in the 83rd minute.

Junior goalkeeper Kyle Bak (Cumberland, RI) finished with four saves in picking up his second shutout of the fall.

Keene State's best opportunity to score came in the 67th minute when junior freshman midfielder Alex Larson (Williamsport, PA) fired a shot that skipped off the top of the crossbar.

"It was another disappointing loss for the Owls who were shutout for the seventh time this season. "Alex Horne was double-teamed and taken out of the game," said KSC Coach Ron Butcher. "He continued to work hard and get the ball to other people."

Junior keeper Peter Kersker (Ipswich, MA) compiled six saves.

Western New England College held a 19-7 advantage in shots and four to one edge in corner kicks.

Keene State is off until next Saturday when its hosts UMass-Boston.
