Dane Azeles clinches overtime goal to give men’s soccer victory

HUNTINGDON, Pa. – Junior Dane Azeles (Duncansville, Pa./Hollidaysburg), assisted by Dylan Thompson (Broomfield, Colo./Peak to Peak Charter), ripped a shot off a corner kick from outside the goalie box just two minutes into Juniata men's soccer's overtime period against Delaware Valley on Saturday afternoon at Winton Hill Field to lift Juniata over the Aggies 3-2.

Juniata (3-1) struck first with Andy Blunk (State College, Pa./State College Area) scoring a header goal with just four seconds left in the first half assisted by Greg Hess (Hanover, Pa./South Western).

Delaware Valley (1-1) responded in the 58th minute on a Tyler Yankovich break away fed to Steve Mannato for the goal. The Eagles tied the game in the 71st minute with a Hess goal off a penalty kick.

The Aggies responded once again in the 84th minute from Jacob Stear who sneaked it by Juniata goalkeeper Ezra Cassel (Denver, Pa./Cocalico) to send the match into overtime. 

Juniata hosts Pitt.-Bradford at Winton Hill Field on Tuesday, September 11 at 4:30 p.m. to close out its five-game home series to open the 2012 season.
