Honeysett's goal gives Delaware victory over visiting Navy

 

Mike Honeysett scored the game-winner in the 71st minute

NEWARK, DE -- Senior forward Mike Honeysett scored the game-winning goal midway through the second half to lead the University of Delaware men's soccer team to a 2-1 victory over Navy Tuesday evening at Delaware Mini-Stadium.

The match was tied 1-1, when Honeysett collected a pass from freshman midfielder Ed Cwiek, and he outraced the defense, beating Navy goalkeeper Matt Copar for the game's deciding goal at 70:04.

Cwiek opened the scoring in the ninth minute when he gathered a one-touch pass from freshman Ryan Edwards, and he put his shot into the lower left-corner of the net for a 1-0 Delaware lead. The goal marked the first time the Blue Hens have scored in the first half this season.

Matt Sanchez scored for Navy at 59:52 to tie the game 1-1.

The Blue Hens had a chance to go ahead 2-0 in the 13th minute, when Honeysett was dragged down inside the box, but his penalty kick was turned away by Navy goalkeeper Frank Difilippo.

Delaware sophomore goalkeeper Kyle Haynes made a season high eight saves in the victory. Difilippo had five saves in the first half for Navy (4-7-1) before being replaced by Copar at halftime. Copar stopped one shot.

The Blue Hens (2-5-1) return to action this Sunday when they play host to Iona at Delaware Mini-Stadium. Game time is set for 4 p.m.
