The Davidson Wildcats scored early and often en route to an 8-0 thrashing of The Citadel in men's Southern Conference soccer action Saturday afternoon at Richardson Field in front of 478 fans. Erik Ozimek scored his first goal in a Davidson uniform just 56 seconds into play to give the Wildcats the only goal they would need. Ozimek's goal was setup by a strong run down the left side of the field by freshman midfielder David Peoples who then served the ball perfectly into the penalty box where Ozimek found the back of the net. Senior Bryan Garrett takes a corner kick. He also had an assist in today's match.
Peoples setup the next goal by the 'Cats as well.
Senior co-captain Dane Erickson continued the scoring frenzy in the 11th minute as he banged home a pass from Norbet for the teams third goal. Freshman defender Justin Porter was credited with the second assist. Junior forward Jon Tetirick scored the fourth goal of the match just 57 seconds later as he dispossessed a Citadel defender and his shot found the back of the net. Davidson was kept off the board for the remaining 20 minutes of play in the first half and went into their locker room with a comfortable 5-0 lead.
