Friday Night Shutout Leads Wabash To Fourth Win

The Wabash soccer team recorded its third shutout in its first four matches of the 2015 season with a 5-0 win at Manchester Friday night.
 
The Little Giants (4-0) posted the victory in the first match of the Raven-Spartan Soccer Classic. Wabash returns to action in less than 24 hours with a 3 p.m. start at Anderson University to conclude the event.
 
Freshman Nikola Kajmakoski provided the eventual game-winning goal in the 25th minute, collecting a pass from Riley Pelton for a 1-0 Wabash lead. The Little Giants held the one-goal edge to halftime before exploding for four goals over the final 45 minutes.
 
Freshman Jacques Boulais tallied the first of the four goals just 45 seconds into the final period off a pass from Cory Sims. Spase Dorsuleski added an unassisted goal three minutes later. Gabe Murei scored his second goal of the season in the 83rd minutes. Benjamin Wachnicki took a pass from Free Burton for the final goal in the last minute of the match.
 
"We bounced back from an okay performance against Earlham with a good road win versus Manchester," Wabash head coach Chris Keller said. "We played well and possessed the ball early. We got great movement from the forwards and got the ball in the box a lot and took a lot of shots. Kajmakoski netted a good goal in the first half. We came out strong in the second half and attacked offensively. We created a lot of opportunities and put the ball away. We also got another great performance defensively, stifling Manchester's attack."
 
Dayton Jennings recorded his second shutout of the year, saving four shots for the victory. Wabash outshot the Spartans (0-3-1) 20-11 overall. The Little Giants scored on five of their ten total shots on goal. Kajmakoski led the team with seven total shots. Mike Gore added three shot attempts.
 
Wabash has outscored its opponents 17-1 through four matches this season. Earlham is the only team to score against the Little Giants, taking a 1-0 lead Wednesday before Wabash eventually captured a 2-1 double overtime win.
