A late goal by
Spase Dorsuleski and penalty kick save by
Dayton Jennings guided Wabash to a 2-1 soccer victory at Rose-Hulman Wednesday evening.
Â
The Little Giants rallied from a 1-0 deficit to tie the match at 1-1 late in the first half. Dorsuleski gathered a pass from
Jacques Boulais and scored his first goal of the season with 1:03 remaining in regulation to give the match to Wabash.
Â
Francisco Trejo notched his first goal of the year in the 42
nd minute to tie the match at 1-1. Jennings turned aside a penalty kick for Rose-Hulman (4-2-0) in the final minute of the first half to preserve the 1-1 tie at the break.
Â
"Tonight we saw a tremendous game, a very mature game from our guys," Wabash head coach
Chris Keller said. "We really executed the game plan against Rose-Hulman. We made a few changes at halftime and saw great depth coming off the bench with some of the freshmen giving us some good minutes.
Â
"Trejo did a great job coming in and giving us a spark with his goal. We came out in the second half and played our best 45 minutes of soccer of the season and were rewarded in the end with the goal from Spase. This shows we are working to get better every game."
Â
Wabash limited Rose to three total shots and only two attempts on goal. The Little Giants managed 11 total shot attempts with six shots on goal, led by
Nikola Kajmakoski with three. Jennings finished with the one save in the contest.
Â
The Little Giants (2-3-1) return to Fischer Field Saturday for a 3 p.m. contest versus Fontbonne.
