Monmouth University, 5-2 in men's soccer action Wednesday

Delaware's five goals were its most

1999.
Shepanski, a senior from Glen Mills,
PA(Garnet Valley), started the scoring four minutes into
play, taking a Mike Honeysett pass and kicking it
past the Hawk goalie. Six minutes later Eric Carlson
scored his second goal of the season off a Dan Keane
crossing pass.
The Hens scored their third straight goal
when Honeysett then scored off an Adam Flanigan
corner kick. Five minutes after Monmouth added a score,
Shepanski put in his second score, taking the rebound shot
off Keane's shot off the post. The Delaware five-goal first
half conmenced with a Jeff Skinner goal, assisted by
a Stephan Mangat cross.
The Hawks' back-up goalie, Frank Gullace,
shutdown the Delaware offfense in the second half, recording
three saves. Joe Sellito and Anthony Viscariello scored the
two goals for Monmouth (3-4-1).
Blue Hen freshman goalie Kyle
Haynes (St. Michael's, MD/ St. Michael's) stopped
five shots to record his third win of the season.
