Saratoga Springs, N.Y. – The Skidmore College men's soccer team defeated Utica 1-0 in Wednesday night's non-conference action at Wachenheim Field.
Doug Yeates gave the Thoroughbreds an early 1-0 lead when he beat the Utica keeper on
Diego Reinero's crossing pass for his second goal of the season.
The one goal would be all Skidmore needed as they outshot the Pioneers 19-3. Thoroughbred keeper
Nick Peterson didn't face a shot on goal to pick up his second shutout of the year. Utica goalie Kevin Murphy made three saves in the loss.
