The University of Akron men’s soccer team won its final non-conference match of the regular season against Marshall University Wednesday night at FirstEnergy Stadium-Cub Cadet Field.
Akron dominated possession of the ball on the rainy Akron evening attempting six shots in the first half, but the team was unable to score a goal until the second half.
Their first goal came during the 67th minute after Sam Gainford was tackled from behind inside the penalty area, which resulted in a penalty kick for the Zips. Stuart Holthusen, secured his sixth goal of the season, allowing Akron to take the lead.
