W&M Men’s Soccer Opens Season With 8-0 Win Over St. Joseph’s

WILLIAMSBURG, VA - Three William and Mary players had two goals apiece, led by senior forward Andreas Nydal (McLean, VA), who came off the bench to score two goals and add an assist, as the Tribe men’s soccer team blanked Saint Joseph’s, 8-0, in the season opener for both teams.

It took less than 10 minutes for the Tribe to score more goals than it did in any single game last season, as the Green and Gold quickly jumped out to a 3-0 lead. W&M’s first two goals of the match came off the foot of freshman forward Andrew Hoxie (Newport News, VA), the first just 2:47 in, as he made a nice move to beat a Hawks defender and left-footed a shot into the back of the net. Less than four minutes later the rookie scored again, as sophomore midfielder Martin Brady (Largs, Scotland), sent a pass across from the right side to Hoxie who put it in for a 2-0 lead. Senior back Clayton Voss (Reston, VA) scored in the 10th minute on a pass from sophomore midfielder Ryan Overdevest (Bridgeton, NJ). Nydal completed the Tribe’s first-half scoring in the 42nd minute on an unassisted goal from the right side.

The Tribe continued to cruise through the second half, starting with another unassisted goal by Nydal as he received the ball on the left side with very little scoring angle, but still managed to slip the ball in for a 5-0 lead in the 61st minute. Just over 15 minutes later, junior forward Jarrett Thomas (McLean, VA) scored his first goal since his freshman season, with the assist credited to redshirt freshman midfielder Brock Jones (Ridgefield, CT). Less than two minutes later, Jones scored his first career goal, as he put back the rebounded shot of Nydal. Jones factored into the scoring again in the 81st minute, as he fed Thomas who ended the night’s scoring with a shot to the left side.

W&M outshot Saint Joseph’s 25-3 in the contest, including 16 shots on goal. Trevor Lyman started the match in goal, making seven saves and allowing seven goals in the first 77:19. He was lifted for Rob Lavorerio, who played the remainder of the match, making one save and allowing a goal. W&M’s junior goalkeeper Kris Rake (Flower Mound, TX) was not tested in the game, picking up his ninth career shutout without making a save.

The Tribe returns to action next weekend at Old Dominion’s Stihl Soccer Classic. W&M will face Clemson Friday at 4:30 PM and will take on Rhode Island on Sunday at noon. The Hawks return to action Wednesday, Sept. 7 with a game at Binghamton.

Game Notes: This was the first meeting between William and Mary and Saint Joseph’s ... The eight goals scored is the most in a game for the Tribe since defeating UNC Wilmington, 8-0, on Nov. 9, 2000 in the quarterfinals of the Colonial Athletic Association Tournament ... W&M scored just 20 goals in the team’s 20 matches last season ... Andreas Nydal now has 15 goals in his career.
