ANDERSON, S.C. -- In a battle of unbeatens on the young season, two second-half goals lifted the Anderson mens soccer team past 18th- ranked Francis Marion, 2-0, Tuesday night at the AU Soccer Field. The two teams played evenly early in the match, but Anderson (3-0) broke through to get on the scoreboard with two goals in a seven-minute span late in the second frame. Sophomore midfielder Lasse Sohrweide blasted a shot past FMU keeper Clark Richeson at the 74:51 mark of the contest, marking Sohrweide's first game-winner of the season and the seventh of his career as a Trojan. Earlier in the match, Richeson made diving stops to both his left and right, recording four saves in the first half, but was unable to keep AU off the scoreboard in the final 16 minutes of action, as senior Paulo Passini's header off a free kick from Zach Denson found the back of the net less than seven minutes after Sohrweide's score. "We started slow tonight but picked it up," said Anderson head coach Rob Miller. "We were really focused in the last 20 minutes. Last season we didn't finish matches like we should have, but we finished well tonight." Anderson threatened early in the match, as sophomore Mark Smith raced down the left side of the pitch and lifted a cross into the box at the 5:25 mark, but AU was unable to get off a shot. Sohrweide followed less than a minute later with another feed from the same area but again the Trojans were unable to capitalize. Moments later, Richeson knocked down Passini's first attempt of the night, and the balled rolled loose but no Trojan was close enough to take advantage. AU continued to apply pressure and Sohrweide's close attempt in the 27th minute of action narrowly missed, just grazing the crossbar and the teams went to intermission with neither squad able to find the net. AU recorded 11 corner kicks on the night, while the Patriots collected two and the Trojans out-shot Francis Marion, 19-6, with Sohrweide collecting eight of the attempts. Denson's assist was the second of the season for the Lilburn, Ga. native. Junior Benjamin Pepion was between the pipes for the Trojans, earning his third win of the 2009 campaign and his first shutout. "The home environment really helped," said Miller, whose squad has not lost at home since Oct. 18, 2007 - a span of 11 contests including tonight's match. Next up for the Trojans is a Friday night matchup versus Flagler College, with kick-off scheduled for 7 p.m. at the AU Soccer field.
