Titans drop 3-0 road decision at Waynesburg

WAYNESBURG, Pa.---The Westminster men's soccer team suffered a 3-0 Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) loss at Waynesburg Wednesday night at John F. Wiley Stadium. 

Waynesburg, winners of three-straight matches, improved to 8-6-2 overall and 5-4-1 in the PAC. Westminster fell to 6-6-3 overall and 3-4-2 in the league.

Matthew Serrano scored off assists from Sarpong Kwabiah and John Engel in the 16th minute. Westminster generated pressure later in the half, earning corner kicks at 24:07 and 24:43 before freshman Zayden Herb (New Castle, Pa., Neshannock) put a shot on goal that Zach Reed saved. Freshman Vasilis Kouvelas (Anthem, Ariz., Boulder Creek) made two saves during a late Waynesburg stretch, and the Titans went to halftime trailing 1-0.

After halftime, Westminster withstood an early Waynesburg stretch of seven shots, with Kouvelas making three saves, before Antonio Baires extended the lead to 2-0 after converting a penalty kick in the 60th minute. The Titans created chances later, including sophomore Ferlando David (Orlando, Fla., Oak Ridge) hitting the right post and sophomore Alexis Bennetot (Miami, Fla., Florida Christian) putting a shot on frame, before Engel closed out the scoring with a goal in the 85th minute. It was his eighth of the year. 

Waynesburg outshot Westminster 24-11 and had a 9-4 advantage in shots on goal. The Yellow Jackets finished with seven corner kicks to five for the Titans. 

Benetot registered three shots, putting two on goal. Herb totaled four shots and put one on goal. Kouvelas made six saves.
