TYLER, Texas -- The Lincoln
College men's soccer program capped its best season in history with
a win at the NJCAA national tournament. The Lynx (18-2-4) defeated
Darton (17-5) by the score of 2-0 in the consolation bracket to
finish fifth in the nation.
|
 It was a back-and-forth game with both teams coming close to
scoring, but at the end of the first half the score was 0-0.The
second half was a much better half by Lincoln, with several great
chances and several great buildups that led to quality chances on
goal.
The game-opening and winning goal came with four minutes left in
the fifth-place game when Stiven Salinas slotted Edwin Moalosi, who
then found the back of the net from a tight angle.
The final goal was one of the best of the season as Moalosi
crossed a ball to far post, where Isai Lemus passed the ball across
the goal mouth with his chest and found Rodrigo Buitrago, who struck
the ball one time into the back of the net to end the game and the
season on a good note.
