SIOUX CITY, IOWA – A four-goal explosion that began in the late stages of the first half and concluded midway through the second frame sparked Morningside University Saturday, Oct. 2.
Visiting Doane University's defense kept the Tigers close early on. After sophomore midfielder/forward Victor Beker (Amsterdam, Netherlands) and senior midfielder Moritz Lusch (Bielefield, Germany) put two goals on the Mustangs' side of the Elwood Olsen Stadium scoreboard in the first 15 minutes, Doane kept their net clean until senior midfielder Noah Aniser (Memmingen, Germany) buried a strike for a 3-0 halftime lead.
Aniser and Lusch continued the offensive theme for head coach Tom Maxon's squad in the second 45. They both posted another goal, and Lusch added an assist to his evening's resume for a five-point finish. Beker was next in line in that category with an assist and goal for three points. Lusch, Beker, and junior forward combined for 13 of the home team's 21 total attempts which also helped headline a much-needed 6-0 Great Plains Athletic Conference win that ended a three-match slide.
Junior goalkeeper Bjarne Huth (Bad Vilbel, Germany) and senior netminder teammate Tobias Sadler (Augsburg, Germany) were beneficiaries of the offensive output. They combined for a 90-minute clean sheet that featured one save.
