Wabash Soccer Holds Off Earlham in 5-3 Win

RICHMOND, Indiana -- Wabash took an early 3-0 at Earlham Tuesday evening but needed a second goal from Ben Wallace and an insurance goal from Alfredo Campos to secure a 5-3 victory over the host Quakers at Matlack-Messer Stadium.
Wabash improved to 7-2-0 overall with the win.

How it Happened
The Little Giants scored first in the 15th minute when Campos delivered his fourth goal of the season off a pass from Bruno Zamora. Wabash made it 2-0 when Wallace scored his first goal of the season five minutes later on a penalty kick. That score held through halftime until Logan Dottenwhy tallied his second goal of the season early in the second half to put Wabash up 3-0.

Wallace found the back of the net for the second time just 30 seconds later to put the Little Giants in front 4-0 with what would prove to be the game-winning goal of the match.

Earlham (1-6-1) rallied to score three goals over the next 15 minutes to trim the Wabash lead to one at 4-3. Campos ended any last comeback effort by the Quakers with his team-leading fifth goal of the season and second of the match with 12 minutes remaining in the contest.

Wabash outshot Earlham by one, 14-13, and held a one-shot advantage in shots on goal, 7-6. Henry Giesel made three saves in goal for the Little Giants to earn his first win of the season.
Wabash plays Illinois Wesleyan University on Saturday, September 28, at 3:30 p.m. at Fischer Field.
