In addition to his 26^th career goal, which moved him into 9^th on Radford's all-time list, Awosika's fourth penalty kick of the season gives him the most in school history.

After setting up Teejay East's first of two goals on the afternoon, Ashton Bennett, who ranks among the nation's leaders in goals, scored the eventual game-winner and his 12^th of the season in the 53^rd minute.

Just minutes after Coastal went ahead 2-0, Radford responded in the 56^th minute on Awosika's PK as a result of a handball in the box.
 
The Chanticleers' other strike came from Cyprian Hedrick on a header off a corner kick.
 
East, who scored the only goal of the opening half, put away the game's final goal on a header of his own in the 80^th minute.
 
Coastal Carolina finished with a 13-5 advantage in shots.
 
The Highlanders' Ryan Taylor (Midlothian, Va. / Midlothian) led both keepers with five saves.
 
Radford returns home Wednesday evening for a 6 p.m. contest with VMI.
