Box Score MEMPHIS—Brothers
David Skull (Adelaide, Australia, Woodcroft College) and
Yannick Skull (Adelaide, Australia, Woodcroft College) combined for the game's only goal in the sixth minute as the Christian Brothers University Bucs defeated visiting Shorter 1-0 to claim their second consecutive Gulf South Conference win Sunday afternoon.
The Bucs (3-3, 2-0 GSC) scored when Yannick Skull headed in David Skull's free kick, and despite near-constant pressure on Shorter (1-4-1, 0-2) goalkeeper Ryan Edwards, the Bucs could not find the net again. The Bucs out-shot Shorter 24-6 for the game, including a 10-2 advantage in shots on goal, but Edwards made nine saves to keep the Hawks within striking distance.
The Bucs put five shots on target in each half, and they held a commanding 11-2 edge in corner kicks, but they were unable to convert for a second score.
Jaime Garcia (San Salvador, El Salvador/Lincoln School) made two saves to preserve the shutout.
The Bucs play their next three games on the road, beginning next Friday night at 5 p.m. when they visit West Florida.
