rolled by Capital 5-1.
COLUMBUS, Ohio- Jordan Glassman scored No. 2 Kenyon's first three goals en route to a 5-1 come-from-behind win over Capital University Tuesday afternoon at Bernlohr Stadium in a non-conference men's soccer match.

Kenyon remained perfect to start the year (8-0) and notched its sixth win away from Gambier.

The Crusaders jumped out to 1-0 lead in the 14th minute as R.G. Florey was tackled just inside the goalie's box which resulted in a foul and subsequent penalty kick.

The Lords trailed Capital for a season-long 18 minutes before Glassman delivered the equalizer in the 32nd minute. Tony Amolo stole possession from a Capital player and found Glassman who fired a shot into the right corner of the net.

The 1-1 score would remain the rest of the first half.

Just three minutes into the second half, Glassman would deliver the go-ahead score as he took a no-look pass from Amolo along the left side and finished passed Capital goalkeeper Justin Niswonger.
The Lords never relinquished the lead and turned a close first half into a runaway second.

Glassman scored his third and final goal in the 64th minute as a misplayed ball by a Capital defender and Niswonger resulted in a tap-In for the Madison, Conn., native.

Amolo tallied his ninth goal of the year in the 78th minute before Oliver Wynn scored his first on a header in the 82nd to round out Kenyon's scoring efforts.

The Lords out-shot the Crusaders 21-9 with 10 of those attempts on-goal.         

Kenyon opens up North Coast Athletic Conference action this Saturday, September 27 at 12:05 p.m. when they host DePauw University.
