CRESSON, PA – Tim Jordan (Hamburg, NY/Frontier) scored 12:01 into the second half to break a 0-0 tie and help the Hilbert College men’s soccer team to a 2-0 conference win over Mount Aloysius College on Saturday. The victory is the Hawks first of the 2006 season in the Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference (AMCC).

Hilbert’s Dan Russell (Marilla, NY/Iroquois) added an insurance goal with 3:00 remaining and keeper Adam Eaton (Sardinia, NY/Pioneer) recorded seven saves to earn his first career shutout between the pipes. Matt Begeal (Northville, NY/Wells) assisted on the Hawks first goal and David Cunningham (Cheektowaga, NY/Maryvale) joined Jordan for assists on Rusell’s goal.

The host Mounties (1-11, 0-6) were paced by the defensive effort of keeper Brady Griesheimer who stopped 16 shots in a losing effort.

The Hawks (4-9-1, 1-4-1) return to action Wednesday, October 18th at AMCC foe Penn State Behrend.
