DAVIDSON, N.C. – Nico Benalcazar scored the game's lone goal in the 78th minute to lift No. 7 Wake Forest over Davidson, 1-0, in men's soccer action Tuesday evening at Alumni Stadium.
The setback drops the 'Cats to 1-5-1, while the Demon Deacons move to 7-1-0.
Benalcazar's difference maker came off a deflection following a Wake corner kick.
Davidson, which has played one of the nation's toughest non-conference schedules, had a great chance to score first, but Lucas Hauth's one-on-one opportunity caromed off the right post with just eight minutes left in the first.
Five of the Wildcats' opponents through seven games played in the NCAA Tournament last season.
Despite the loss, Sawyer Gaffney led both keepers with three saves.
Up Next
Davidson will enjoy a week break before returning to action Tuesday, Oct. 1 for a 7 p.m. tilt with UNCG on 1992 Team Field.
