Senior forward Andrew Terker '06 scored twice in the span of thirty seconds to propel Swarthmore to its fifth consecutive victory, a 3-1 decision over Washington (Md.) on Wednesday evening at Clothier Field. The win, combined with Muhlenberg's 3-0 loss to F&M, move the Garnet into sole possession of first place in the Centennial Conference.
Sophomore forward Michael Bonesteel put in the first score just forty-eight seconds into the game, heading home a bending cross from midfielder Ladule La Lako Sarah '09. That's only the third first-half goal by the Garnet, and the first on the season for Bonesteel.
The Garnet kept the offense rolling as the midfielders kept feeding the Swarthmore forwards for excellent scoring chances. Terker's first score started with defender Duncan Gromko '07, who settled a ball cleared out of the Shoremen box. Gromko crossed the ball from the right side to the far left post where midfielder Christopher Szeto '09 one-timed the ball across the goal mouth. Terker came streaking in and re-directed the ball past Washington goalie Steve Ferri at 18:55 for a 2-0 Swat lead.
Terker struck again at 18:25 left in the first half, taking a through ball from midfielder Matt Schiller '07 and blasting it into the right side of the net for his fourth goal of the season. The Garnet, helped by starting goal keeper Reuben Heyman-Kantor 's two saves, kept the Shoremen at bay, leading 3-0 into the intermission.
The Shoremen got one back early in the second half when Brian Shulz got loose down the right flank and crossed the ball to the feet of Derek Dombrowski. Dombrowski touched the ball past Garnet keeper Ryan Sutcliffe '08 into the right corner for his first career goal. The score ended a Garnet streak of almost 504 minutes without allowing an opponent to score.
Sutcliffe came back and made three big saves, helping extend Swarthmore's record to 8-1 overall and 3-0 in the Centennial Conference.
The Garnet enjoyed a 22-11 shot advantage and took eight corners to the Shoremen's five.
Sean Ferri and Mike Gillis combined for seven saves as the Shoremen dropped to 2-6 overall and 1-2 in the Centennial.
