How It Happened

Penn State Harrisburg won its sixth game in a row by shutting out North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) foe Wells 4-0 on Saturday afternoon, Oct. 26.

 

The Lions (13-4, 9-0 NEAC) got goals from four different players, with Toma Nichik, Haydyn Zagorski, Joey Aman and Daryl Lucas netting one marker apiece.

 

Nichik got the visitors on the board first with a strike off an assist from Luke Myers in the 24th minute. The Blue & White turned it on early in the second half, with Zagorski and Aman netting their goals in a span of four minutes just after the break. Luis Velasco added a helper on Zagorski's marker.

 

Lucas put an exclamation point on the day's scoring by finding twine off a feed from Mohamed Kotby in the 78th minute to put things out of reach for good.
