BOX SCORE

ANN ARBOR, Mich. - - Using three first half goals, the Madonna men's soccer team rolled to a 3-0 win at Concordia on Wednesday. MU is now 4-1 on the season and 2-0 in WHAC play. Concordia opens the season at 0-1.

MU got on the board just 7:37 in as newcomer Eric Kiebert took a loose ball just inside the 18-yard box and after turning, fired a shot that Concordia keeper Shawn Simney had no chance to stop for a 1-0 MU lead.

Fellow newcomer Otieno Victor made it 2-0 MU, scoring his first goal of the season in the 21st minute, taking the ball away from the Cardinals and beating Simney to his right for his first collegiate goal.

Kiebert, a transfer from Auburn-Montgomery, made it 3-0 just under nine minutes later as he took a pass from Doron Drai and fired his shot past a diving Simney for the final MU score.

The Cards posted four shots on goal but Crusader keeper Anthony DeMarco was up to the challenge in his first action of the season, stopping all four shots.

The Crusaders face off in a battle at Davenport on Saturday. Match time is set for 2pm in Grand Rapids.
