Gama’s Two Goals Keeps Men’s Soccer Rolling With Victory at Chestnut Hill



Junior Lorenzo Gama (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) scored twice to help Goldey-Beacom extend three important streaks and end another in a 3-1 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference victory at Chestnut Hill in Plymouth Meeting, PA.
 
Goldey-Beacom in the 25th minute grabbed a crucial 1-0 lead.  Junior Mateus Silvestre (Picarras, Brazil) got the ball and put a shot inside the left post for his personal-best fourth goal of the season and seventh career.
 
Gama then was just getting warm by scoring in the 33rd minute for a 2-0 lead, taking a pass from freshman Nicolas Jaramillo (Cali, Colombia) and finding the back of the net.  The Griffins got one back with 1:37 left in the half when Lindsay Murdoch headed one in, cutting the margin to 2-1.
 
Gama restored the Lightning's two-goal lead in the 67th minute to secure his first career brace.  He got the ball and beat goalkeeper James Jackson in a one-on-one situation for his second goal of the season and third career.
 
GBC (6-1-1, 4-0-1 CACC) extended its best overall start in school history, its best conference start in team annals, ran its unbeaten streak to six (5-0-1) for the first time since it won six straight in 2002 and ended its six-game skid vs. Chestnut Hill.
 
The Lightning moved to the top of the table in the CACC, one point better than Concordia (4-1) and Georgian Court (4-1).  GBC already has defeated both this season.
 
Gama attempted four shots and sophomore Suhail Bismilla (Johannesburg, South Africa), the two-time reigning CACC Defensive Player of the Week, made three saves for the Lightning.
 
Jason Doherty took four shots and Jackson closed with eight saves for the Griffins (1-7, 0-5).
 
Goldey-Beacom is home Saturday against Felician as part of a doubleheader with the women's team.  The men's game starts after 3:15 pm, which follows the women's 1:00 pm contest.
