Grant Shaffer's Early Goal Lifts Men's Soccer to 1-0 Triumph Over Berkeley College

Junior Grant Shaffer (Glen Rock, PA) scored off a loose ball in the sixth minute to give Widener its first victory of the season, 1-0 over Berkeley College at the Garnet Alumni Classic in Swarthmore, PA.
 
Widener (1-0-1) dominated most of the contest and it was an early marker that kept it undefeated.  Freshman John Colbert (Louisville, KY) lofted a corner kick that was misplayed by a Berkeley defender.  Shaffer corralled it in the box and rifled a shot past Christian Vidreiro for his second career goal.
 
The Pride's domination made it an easy day at the office for sophomore goalkeeper Dave Sousa (Springfield, PA/Springfield), who only needed three saves for his first collegiate victory.
 
Junior Tori Remondelli (Point Pleasant, NJ) took four shots for the Pride, who owned a 14-12 shots edge and took eight corner kicks.
 
Pedro dos Santos attempted three shots and Vidreiro came up with five saves for the Knights (0-1).
 
This marks the second straight year and third time in the last five campaigns Widener has opened undefeated in its first two contests.
 
Widener is on the road Wednesday to visit Ursinus for a 7:30 pm start in Collegeville, PA.
