SCORING SUMMARY

HOW IT HAPPENED

Early goals in each half by Jamie Summers and Jakob Strandsäter propelled Radford to a 2-0 victory over Presbyterian, Saturday afternoon, in both teams' Big South men's soccer opener.
Jo Vetle Rimstad was fouled inside the box in the 18^th minute, which set up Summers' penalty kick.
The second goal of the match was an all-freshman connection as Strandsäter buried his first goal of the season in the 49^th minute off an assist from Finn Tiedemann.

QUOTABLE

"Every conference game presents different challenges and this was a tough away contest. We controlled most of the possession, but we still must be better in creating cleaner looks at goal. It was great to get the win, however, now we must use all our resources and time to be ready again on Wednesday." ~ Radford head coach, Marc Reeves
