No. 19 Bucs Edge No. 7 Lions 2-1

SAINT CHARLES, Mo.-An 83rd-minute goal by senior forward Samuel Wilson (Memphis, Tenn., Christian Brothers HS) lifted the No. 19 Christian Brothers University Bucs to a 2-1 win at No. 7 Lindenwood Friday night.

HOW IT HAPPENED:
• The Lions (2-1-1) opened the scoring in the 29th minute as Nijaz Muratovic found the net after a cross into the box from Steven Hutchison.
• The Bucs (3-0-0) equalized in the 43rd minute when Carlos Meza Amador (Tampico, Mexico/IEST Valles) headed in a cross from Brendan Bennett (Belfast, Northern Ireland/St. Mary's Christian Brothers Grammar School) for his second goal of the season.
• Wilson provided the game-winner unassisted in the 83rd minute, scoring a goal for the third consecutive game and the game-winner for the second straight game.

KEY STATS:
• Wilson, Meza Amador and Xavi Lao (Barcelona, Spain/Escola Pia Sabadell) each took a pair of shots for CBU.
