DAVIDSON, N.C. – A goal by Zach Crandall in the 13th minute proved to be the difference as Longwood earned a 2-0 victory over Davidson in non-conference men's soccer action Saturday night at Alumni Stadium.
Shots were even in the second half as Davidson (5-6-2, 1-1-1 SoCon) generated more offensive pressure, but the Wildcats were unable to crack the Longwood (7-6-1, 0-2 Atlantic Soccer Conference) defense.
Crandall found his way past Davidson's central defenders early in the first half to score what proved to be the game-winning goal. Nick Surkamp iced the win with 15 seconds remaining with a goal from just inside the 18-yard box.
Davidson's best chance to score came midway through the second half when sophomore forward Chris Pettigilio was able to steal the ball from goalkeeper Joel Helmick outside the 18-yard box. Pettigllio was on the right flank and had a tough angle on goal, allowing a Longwood defender to get back and save Pettigilio's long-range shot.
Helmick made one save, while senior goalkeeper Chip Sanders made five saves for Davidson.
The Wildcats return to action Monday night at 7 p.m., hosting No. 2 North Carolina in Alumni Stadium.
