UAH Rolls at Delta State in 4-0 Shutout

CLEVELAND, Miss. | The University of Alabama in Huntsville men's soccer team blew past host Delta State by a 4-0 score on Sunday, pushing its single-season conference unbeaten streak to a program-best six games. The Chargers improve to 5-4-2 (4-0-2 Gulf South Conference), while DSU drops to 2-9-1 (0-8-0 GSC).
 
Turning Points
-The Chargers quickly jumped ahead in the contest as Gunnar Birgisson scored in the seventh minute to put the guests up 1-0, and the team built up a 2-0 lead in the 24th when Khalil Bell fed it to Corentin Diverres who tapped it in for the score.
-After the game went into the half with UAH leading 2-0, the Chargers earned a corner to start the second half and immediately went up by three as the kick from Diverres was headed in by Shane Woodruff in the 46th.
-Bell then produced the eventual 4-0 final when he went 1-on-1 with the keeper and beat him for the game's final score.
 
Inside the Box Score
-UAH established a wide 19-7 advantage in shots and also held a 9-3 difference in attempts that were on target, and the team earned 13 corners to just one for Delta State.
