#10 Rangers beat Griffins 3-0 to remain perfect in 2016

Box Score SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The No. 10 ranked Regis University men's soccer team (7-0-0, 4-0 RMAC) continued their streak of brilliant performances on Sunday afternoon beating the Westminster College Griffins (1-6, 0-4 RMAC) by a score of 3-0.
 
Regis collected their fifth shutout of the season in seven games played. The first half began with both teams jostling for possession and it was the Rangers who locked in after the 20-minute mark. Redshirt-senior Ryan Urwiller opened up the scoring as he headed a cross sent in by freshman Porter Milner and beat the keeper to give RU an early 1-0 lead.
 
Five minutes before the end of the first half, Regis was threatening on an attack when they earned a throw in. Milner, who has become a very dangerous weapon using his unique throw-in, hurled the ball into the box where junior Nick Frank got up above any other player and headed the ball home for the Rangers' second goal of the half. Milner picked up his second assist of the game on the play and the 2-0 lead remained as the teams broke for halftime.
 
RU's defense did not allow their opponents to take a single shot in the first half, but the Griffins offense finally found chances in the second half as they took four shots, putting three of them on goal.
 
Seven minutes into the second half, Regis collected another goal as a cross from one of the Rangers deflected off of a WC player and found the back of the net to extend the RU lead to 3-0. The score would not change for the rest of the period and Regis would leave Salt Lake City with their seventh straight win of 2016.
 
Sophomore goalkeeper Chase Webert collected his sixth win of the year and the team picked up their fifth shutout. Webert made two saves in 65 minutes of play while senior Ciaran Gibson made one save during the final 25 minutes of the game. The Rangers dominated the shot count taking 19 shots (eight on goal) to only four (three on goal) for the Griffins. RU also controlled the corner kick battle racking up 10 corner kicks and only conceding three.
 
The undefeated men's soccer team will take on Colorado Christian University (2-6, 2-2 RMAC) on Friday, September 30 at 11 a.m. before returning home to face Colorado Mines (4-3-1, 3-1 RMAC) two days later, Sunday, October 2 at 3 p.m.
