St. Mary's City, Md. - Sophomore forward
Ted Scharfenberg (Holbrook, N.Y./St. John the
Baptist) scored twice in a 1:28-minute span in the first half to
lift the St. Mary's College of Maryland men's soccer team to a 4-0
blanking of Bridgewater (Va.) College Sunday afternoon on the final
day of the inaugural Capital Athletic Conference (CAC)/Old Dominion
Athletic Conference (ODAC) Challenge.
As a whole, the CAC captured the Challenge as both ODAC schools

finished first in the standings as the Sea Gulls outscored their
opponents 16-1, while St. Mary's came in second with a 6-0 scoring
margin. Randolph-Macon College finished third and Bridgewater
fourth as R-MC scored once against Salisbury and BC was scoreless
all weekend.
Sophomore forward Chris Quamina (Glen Burnie,
Md./Mount Saint Joseph) assisted on Scharfenberg's
first tally as Quamina split two defenders inside
the penalty box and flicked a short pass to
Scharfenberg, who then found the upper right
corner at 21:32.
The Seahawks (2-3) went up 2-0 at 23:00 as sophomore midfielder
Matt Grady (Rockville, Md./Walter Johnson) fed
Scharfenberg up the middle and
Scharfenberg had a left-footed strike to beat
sophomore goalkeeper Travis Morris (Westminster,
Md.) to the left.
Grady continued the offensive surge at 41:47 as
he blasted in a quick feed from senior forward Benard
Agyingi (Baltimore, Md./Dunbar) into the left corner as
