Brace for Diaz, another clean sheet for Vidizzoni propel Aces to 2-0 win

EVANSVILLE - Opening Missouri Valley Conference play, the University of Evansville men's soccer tapped into a familiar gameplan en route to a 2-0 win over SIUE on Saturday night at Arad McCutchan Stadium in Evansville.

Sophomore forward Nacho Diaz continued his tear of a first collegiate season in the US, scoring twice in the win for his fifth and sixth goals of the season. Diaz's six goals on the year are already the most by an Ace in a season since Ian McGrath scored 12 during the 2017 season. In goal, graduate keeper Alex Vidizzoni tallied his third-straight clean sheet and his fourth of the season, pushing his shutout streak to 307 minutes, dating back to a 53rd minute goal by IUPUI on August 28th.
