Men’s Soccer Topples High Point at Home
The No. 2 Marshall men’s soccer team (5-0-0) is off to its best start in program history after knocking off the High Point Panthers 2-1 at home on Friday, Sept. 8.
The Herd got out to an early lead in the 10th minute after Alex Stjernegaard sent a corner kick into the box. The ball would deflect off of several players, but Alvaro Garcia-Pascual would head the ball off of a High Point defender and into the net for the first goal of the match. Pascual’s goal in the contest marked his fourth consecutive match with a goal.
High Point would return after Toney Pineda notched his second goal of the season for the Panthers to tie the game 1-1 going into the half.
