NORFOLK, Va. – The Old Dominion (12-5-2, 8-2-0 C-USA) men’s soccer team topped Charlotte in the C-USA Final on Sunday afternoon in front of over 800 fans at the ODU Soccer Complex, 1-0. The soccer Monarchs won their second C-USA title in school history.
Old Dominion’s lone goal came in the 28th minute by Niko Klosterhalfen. Klosterhalfen dodged a Charlotte defender and blasted one past the 49er goalkeeper.
“The first time was obviously special, it was the first (C-USA) one for the university but this one is even more special. We came into this season, we were picked seventh in the league, we finished second and won the trophy so I’m very happy,” explained head coach Alan Dawson.
