CALDWELL, N.J. – Freshman forward
Haakon Sulheim (Lillehammer, Norway) scored the first two goals of his college career to lead Caldwell College to its first Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference win of the season, a 5-0 victory over Goldey-Beacom College (0-4) at the Caldwell College Field on Saturday afternoon.
The Cougars, who won their second straight match, scored four of their five goals in the second half en route to the victory.
Sulheim gave Caldwell a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute when he scored an unassisted goal after gathering a loose ball along the goal line. Just over two minutes into the second half, he upped the Cougars' advantage to 2-0 when he scored on a 22-yard blast for an unassisted goal.
In the 50th minute, junior midfielder
Cole Downs (Brick Township H.S./Bricktown, N.J.) extended the margin to 3-0 when he took a crossing pass from sophomore defender
Evan Marques and scored his first goal of the season into the upper left corner.
Senior defender
Kristopher Olsen-Barr (Brick Township H.S./Brick Township, N.J.) increased the Cougars' lead to 4-0 in the 54th minute with his first goal of the season off an assist from junior forward
Tim Centineo (Holmdel H.S./Holmdel, N.J.).
Just over two minutes later, Centineo scored his first goal of the season when he converted a rebound of a shot from junior defender
Kyle Felton (Toms River South H.S./Toms River, N.J.) that hit the crossbar.
Led by sophomore goalkeeper
Michael Hartmann (Shawnee H.S/Medford, N.J.), the Cougars limited Goldey-Beacom to just 10 shots, including three in the second half. He made four saves en route to his first shutout of the season.
Senior goalkeeper
Carlos Meinhard (Caracas, Venezuela) made four saves in a losing effort for the Lightning while freshman goalkeeper
