A GSW home soccer attendance record was set as 101
fans were at Wednesday's contest.
The men's soccer team dropped a 3-1 decision to Savannah College
of Art and Design on Wednesday afternoon in front of a record crowd
at Hurricane Field. Freshman Jamie Kiep scored his fourth goal
of the season and the lone goal for the 'Canes off an assist from
sophomore Sam Hooke.
A couple of early goals paced the visiting Bees. SCAD
(2-3-2) was on the board 52 seconds into
the match when Ellert Hreinsson dropped a soft cross the
middle that Dan Fadida put past GSW freshman goalkeeper Michael
Smith.
In the 16th minute, Karl Solstrom found Ryan Gadhue on another
cross to give the Bees a 2-0 lead.
The Hurricanes answered at the 30:45 mark when Kiep found the
back of the net to cut the SCAD lead in half before the break.
The score remained 2-1 until the 67th minute when Fadida knocked
in a free kick from the middle of the field just outside
the box.
Smith finished with four
saves. SCAD goalie Robbie Wright saved
four. The Bees outshot the Hurricanes 16-8 and led
in corner kicks 7-2.
GSW (1-6) is back in action on Saturday hosting #3
