No. 1 UMW Men's Soccer Runs Away With Tuesday Afternoon Win Over N.C. Wesleyan

Box Score The No. 1 University of Mary Washington men's soccer team had no issue downing North Carolina Wesleyan for a second time this season, beating the Battling Bishops, 4-0, on Tuesday afternoon.

The Eagles, who took down NC Wesleyan in the first game of the season, scored early and often on Tuesday. 

Nelsar Castillo scored the opening goal in the 17th minute after a pass from Gabe Francesconi found his foot. Then, Carter Berg, after getting a pass from Joel Albritton, followed with his first of the day just under a minute later to push the UMW lead to 2-0.

Berg, after receiving a pass at the top of the box from midfielder from Julian Schmugge, dribbled once, twice then nailed his second goal of the game in the 31st minute as he beat the Bishops' keeper once more to push UMW's lead to 3-0. 

With Berg's last goal, he's now just six points from becoming at least the fifth member of the 100-point club, sitting at 94 career points after his brace on Tuesday.

And that's where the score stood at the half as the Eagles led in shots (5-4), and shots-on-goal (4-3), as well as corner kicks (5-2).

And in the second half, Deigo Guzman scored his fourth goal of the season -- scoring in his second consecutive game -- to put Mary Washington up, 4-0, in the 70th minute. Aidan Shell had the assist on the final goal.

All told, the Eagles and the Battling Bishops tied in shots at six each, while UMW recorded five on goal and NC Wesleyan had four on goal. In corners, Mary Washington ran away with the count, 10-2.

Keeper Freddy Rogers recorded four saves on the six total shots the Eagles' faced, recording his seventh shutout of the season and running the Eagles' record to 14-0-1.

Mary Washington is back in action on Saturday for homecoming against Salisbury. First touch is set for 2:30 p.m.
