STATESBORO, Ga. – Davidson got goals from Alex Feliciano and Valeriy Sviderskiy as the Wildcats defeated Georgia Southern, 2-1, in Southern Conference men's soccer action Sunday afternoon at Eagle Field.
The triumph ends a three-game slide for the Wildcats as they improve to 5-3-1 overall and 1-1-0 in league play, while the Eagles fall to 4-5-0 and 0-1-0.
Just 17 seconds after Witt Carlisle gave GSU the early 1-0 advantage, Feliciano evened the score with his first strike of the season off a long cross from Chris Pettiglio.
Prior to intermission, Jake Keator was unable to convert a penalty kick that would've put the Wildcats up, 2-1.
Sviderskiy continued his impressive play as the sophomore netted the eventual game-winner 7 minutes and 30 seconds into the second half when he followed up his own shot. In addition to it being his team-leading fifth goal of the season it was the ninth of his brief career.
The Wildcats were very efficient on the offensive end putting 11 of their 18 shot attempts on frame.
Neal Bates led both keepers with nine saves. Matt Pacifici was solid in goal for the Wildcats recording three saves en route to his third win of the season.
Davidson will conclude its season-long four-game road trip with a 5 p.m. kick-off at Jacksonville Saturday.
