FREDERICK, Md. – Juniata College midfielder Luke Waddell's (Muncy, Pa./Muncy) goal in the 48th minute lifted the Eagles men's soccer team to a 1-0 win over Hood College, Sunday afternoon at the Thomas Athletic Field.
Waddell buried a rebound off an attempt by Noah Bowers (Mechanicsburg, Pa./Cumberland Valley) nearly three minutes into the second half, beating Hood keeper William Lane.
The goal led a second half dominated by the Eagles, who outshot the Blazers 14-12 over the entire match but had a 9-4 advantage in shots over the second 45-minute frame. Juniata had a commanding 8-0 advantage in corner kick opportunities, and finished with nine corner kicks to Hood's two.
Juniata (4-1) plays just its second home game of the season this Wednesday, Sept. 15, when it hosts Delaware Valley College at 4:00 p.m. on Winton Hill Field.
