PITTSBURGH, Pa. (September 17) – The Waynesburg University men's soccer team rolled to a 8-0 victory over Carlow at Highmark Stadium in Pittsburgh on Tuesday afternoon.

Zachary Johnson (Raceland, Ky. / Saint Joseph Central Catholic) notched his first goal of the season in the game's 12th minute. Seth Massotti (Douglas, Mass. / Whitinsville Christian) sent a corner kick into the penalty area where Johnson overpowered the Carlow keeper, who got a hand on the shot, from straight on to give Waynesburg a 1-0 lead. 

Two minutes later the Jackets tallied another goal. Connor Jacobs (Waynesboro, Pa. / Waynesboro) landed his first tally of the season in the 14th minute with a header from Massotti.

Johnson bodied in another goal off a corner kick in the 18th minute with Matthew Serrano (North Potomac, Md. / Thomas S. Wootton) inserting the corner and collecting the assist to put Waynesburg ahead 3-0.

Aidan Groves (Hampstead, Md. / Delone Catholic) scored his first goal as a Yellow Jacket in the 31st minute. Following a short corner kick, Massotti found Grove at the top of the penalty area, who aimed a shot inside the right post to grove the Jacket lead to 4-0.

An own goal in the 37th minute gave the Jackets a 5-0 lead heading into the halftime break.

Mason Lewis (Venetia, Pa. / Peters Township), Henry Hawkins I(Great Mills, Md. / Great Mills) and Serrano scored in the 63rd, 76th and 79th minutes as Waynesburg cruised to the 8-0 victory.
