Chicago, IL – The visiting Indiana Tech men’s soccer team shutout the Illinois Tech Scarlet Hawks on Saturday afternoon to open their 2011 campaign in convincing fashion, winning 4-0. The Warriors move to 1-0 on the year, while Illinois Tech dropped to 1-1.

The Warriors struck early when senior Elliott Everson (Horsmonden, England/Hayesbrook) buried the game’s first goal off a header from Mark Baptist’s (Essex, England/South East Essex) free kick just seven minutes into the contest.

Junior Bryce Collier (Springfield, MO) added to the advantage two minutes later when he found the back of the net with a header of his own off a corner kick from Aultain Gaye (Grand Rapids, MI/Grand Rapids Central).

The score remained the same until the 54th minute when Everson scored on a penalty kick to make it a 3-0 Warrior lead. Senior Sam Terman (Mason, MI/Mason) made it a 4-0 game in the 76th minute when he buried a shot from 25 yards out.

Freshman keeper Reece Richardson (Halifax, West Yorkshire/Ryburn Valley) was outstanding in goal for Tech, recording eight saves and his first shutout of the season.

The Warriors are back in action Friday, August 26 for the home opener against cross town rival University of Saint Francis at 7:00 p.m.
