MATCH WRAP-UP
Score: Lubbock Christian 2, Saint Martin's 3
Records: LCU – 4-2-0, SMU – 5-1-1
Location: SMU Soccer Field – Lacey, Washington
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Both Lubbock Christian and Saint Martin's put shots on goal in the first 15 minutes that were saved by Braxton Thorne and Dylan Shaw
  • On the Saints' fourth shot on goal, they finally broke the scoreless tie. Brandon Madsen headed a cross into the back of the net in the 37th minute
  • LCU came out of the halftime break with pace, firing off five shots and earning a pair of corners in the first five minutes before Abdou Joof found the back of the net to even the score at 1-1 in the 51st minute
  •  Madsen put the Saints back on top in the 57th minute with his ninth score of the season
  • SMU scored off a corner kick in the 72nd minute to build a two-goal lead
  • Richie Vaca-Cordova sent a through ball into the box, and Fernando Flores was on the end of it to bring the score to 3-2 in the 86th minute
  • Vaca-Cordova got off one more shot that was blocked before the final horn sounded
 
LCU HIGHLIGHTS
  • Joof's goal in the 51st minute was his first of the season and made him the fifth different Lubbock Christian player to score in 2019
  • The Chaps recorded more shots (17/15) and more shots on goal (9/8) than the Saints during the game
  • LCU's goal in the 86th minute from Flores was the sophomore's sixth of the season. He has already doubled his goal output from his freshman campaign
  • Both Caram Carneiro Alve and Vaca-Cordova recorded their first assists of the season on the two Chap goals
  • Seven different Lubbock Christian players tallied shots on goal in the loss
 
CHAPARRAL NOTES
  • LCU goalkeeper made five saves in the loss, bringing him to 104 in his career. He needs eight more to move to second all-time in LCU history and just 17 more to become the Chap all-time leader
  • Flores's six goals this season are more than any Chap player scored during the course of the 2018 season
  • Lubbock Christian has tallied nine assists so far this season with all nine coming from different players
 
NEXT UP
  • The Chaps will finally return home for their next contest, opening Lone Star Conference play at 2 p.m. on Thursday against UT Permian Basin at the LCU Soccer Field
