Box Score

St. Mary's City, Md. - Sophomore forward Misha Simon (Silver Spring, Md./Good Counsel) headed in the 'golden goal' with 43 seconds remaining in the first overtime period as St. Mary's College of Maryland handed Salisbury University a 2-1 overtime setback in Capital Athletic Conference men's soccer action Saturday afternoon.

Senior forward Alex Pyzik (Bel Air, Md./John Carroll) lofted a free kick into the middle of the penalty box where Simon was waiting to notch the game-winning goal and his first goal of the season.

The loss was the first for Salisbury (9-4-1, 5-1 CAC) in conference play and it also halted the Sea Gulls' shutout streak at five.

Salisbury got on the scoreboard first when sophomore midfielder Alex Hargrove (Clarks Summit, Pa./Abington Heights) took a cross from senior midfielder Zach Grubb (Aberdeen, Md./Aberdeen) and shot the ball past St. Mary's senior goalkeeper Tim Carrier (Crownsville, Md./Old Mill) for a 1-0 lead at 17:40.

However, the Seahawks (7-7, 4-3 CAC) responded six minutes later when Pyzik converted on a penalty kick by drilling a shot to the top right corner as sophomore Greg Wellinghoff (Salisbury, Md./James M. Bennett) dove in the opposite direction.

The Sea Gulls, ranked sixth in this week's NCAA Division III South Regional Poll, posted an 18-12 shot advantage while St. Mary's edged SU 5-4 in corner kicks.

Carrier finished with 10 stops in his second straight win, while Wellinghoff made four in the loss.

The Seahawks return to action next Wednesday, October 17 when St. Mary's hosts Virginia Wesleyan College at 3:30 in non-conference action.  Salisbury will host Christopher Newport University on Wednesday as well at 3:30.
