Springfield, Ohio – Junior defender
Kaden Kist scored in the 35th minute to lift Denison Big Red men's soccer to a 1-0 win over Wittenberg on Saturday afternoon at Edwards-Maurer Stadium.
Kist's goal came at 34:40 off a pass from forward
William Hallis, who picked up his first assist of the season. It was Kist's second goal of the year. Denison carried the one-goal lead into halftime and held on through a physical second half in which Wittenberg picked up three of its four yellow cards.
The Big Red out-shot the Tigers 10-7 and held a 6-2 edge in shots on goal. Forward
Henry Gallun put all three of his shots on goal, and forward
Jack Rice led the team with four shots. Sophomore goalkeeper
Alex Provost made two saves to preserve the shutout.
Denison improves to 6-1-6 overall and 2-0-2 in NCAC play. The Big Red are unbeaten in their last seven matches.
Denison hits the road again on Wednesday, October 21, to face Kenyon in Gambier at 3:30 p.m.
