Raiders Fall in Season Opener

SALEM, Ore.  – No. 25 Northwestern men's soccer (0-1, 0-0 GPAC) opened the year against the Corban (Ore.) Warriors (1-0, 0-0 CCC), as Corban took advantage of their penalty kick opportunities en route to a shutout win on Thursday.

Northwestern had the advantage offensively early on as a Niklas Fitter shot from the top of the penalty box went off the post nearly five minutes in.
Corban then kept the ball on their side of the field late in the half as a shot attempt followed by corner kick opportunities pushed the Warriors closer to a scoring chance. Andres Labate drew a foul in the final minute of the first half, leading to a penalty kick goal to give Corban a 1-0 lead entering the break.

The second half opened with a series of fouls and a couple of Corban yellow cards as both teams scrapped for an advantage in a match where shot attempts were scarce. At the 71' mark, Corban's Saad Mohact capitalized on a penalty kick to push the Warrior lead to 2-0.

Corban added a late goal from Reggie Reyes to secure the win.

Up Next: Northwestern will return to the pitch on Saturday, August 27 for a matchup with Northwest (Wash). Saturday's match will be held at 6:00 p.m. at the Outdoor Athletic Complex on the campus of Corban University.
