First-half goals propel Southwestern to 2-1 win over Texas Lutheran
Posted: Sep 13, 2016

GEORGETOWN, Texas – Two first-half goals lifted the Southwestern University men's soccer team to a 2-1 victory over Texas Lutheran in the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference opener on Tuesday evening at Varsity Field.

Jake Swonke put the Pirates up in the 27th minute. The sophomore took a feed from Christian Lopez into the box, made a quick cut and then found the back of the net on a left-footed strike for his first score of the year.

Two minutes later, Lopez was the beneficiary of an assist by Swonke and Andres Carreño-Mendez for the game-winning score. Swonke laid the ball off to Carreño-Mendez at the top of the box before it found the feet of Lopez on the right side. He then took a shot that deflected off the goalkeeper and into the back of the net to give the Pirates a 2-0 lead.

Southwestern will host Centenary in a league tilt on Friday. Kickoff is slated for 5 p.m.
