Bucs Blank Rhodes 3-0

Matt Derise scored the game-winning goal as the Bucs won 3-0 over Rhodes Tuesday night at Signaigo Field.
Box Score MEMPHIS—Three different Christian Brothers University Bucs scored to lead the Bucs to a 3-0 win over Rhodes Tuesday night at Signaigo Field.

The Bucs (2-2) scored the only goal they would need in the 29th minute when Matt Derise (Lafayette, La./St. Thomas More HS) scored off a long pass into the box from Adamandios Toras (Meitarie, La./Archbishop Rummel HS).  They were unable to score again before intermission, but they doubled their lead on a goal from Toras in the 75th minute.  Jose Ferraz (Belo Horizonte, Brazil/) set the final margin as he scored with three seconds to play after a long pass from Yannick Skull (Adelaide, Australia/Woodcroft College).

The Bucs dominated the flow of the game, out-shooting the Lynx (1-3) 30-3 for the game, including a 12-2 margin in shots on goal.  Jaime Garcia (San Salvador, El Salvador/Lincoln School) played the first half without facing a shot, and Daniel Johnson (Lafayette, La./Lafayette HS) made two saves in the second half to protect the Bucs' second shutout of the season.

The Bucs hit the road Friday for a 4:30 p.m. game at former GSC rival Montevallo before coming home Sunday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. against Harding.
