BOX SCORE BOX SCORE

Collegeville, Pa. (Sept. 22, 2010) - Ursinus College (1-5) got its first win of the season on the first goal of the game with nine seconds left in double overtime for a 1-0 win over Alvernia University (5-2-1) Wednesday afternoon in non-conference men's soccer action at Ursinus.

Andrew Machalick scored on a header in the 110th minute of play assisted by Kyle Shelton for the only tally of the day.  Alvernia keeper Ben Diller (Etters, Pa./Red Land) made 15 saves in the game and came up one shy of his second shutout of the season.  Ursinus keeper Mike Alfieri made nine saves and a pair were credited to the team.

Ursinus led in shots with 29 of the 52 registered on the day including a whopping 16 shots in the second half -- a period in which Diller made seven of his 15 saves.

The Crusaders ripped off 10 of their 23 shots in the extra 20 minutes, but couldn't find the back of the net for the first time in a game this season.

Alvernia returns to action next Tuesday hosting DeSales University in a non-conference match.
