Fetterman, Prezioso lead W&J to comeback win at Thiel

GREENVILLE, Pa. – With two goals just over a minute apart within the final eight minutes of the game, the Washington & Jefferson men's soccer team moved past Thiel in Presidents' Athletic Conference road action on Monday, Oct. 16.
 
The Presidents' win lifts their overall record to 8-5 and gives them their first PAC win of the season (1-3) while the Tomcats fall to 4-8-1 overall and 1-3-1 in the conference.
 
Just 63 seconds after the game was tied at 1-1, Matt Prezioso (Clairton, Pa./Thomas Jefferson) gave the Presidents their first lead of the game of a feed from Matt Kotkiewicz (Bethel Park, Pa./Bethel Park). The goal was Prezioso's third of the season, the third most on the team, and Kotkiewicz's team-leading fourth helper.
 
Trailing 1-0 with time beginning to wind down in regulation, Jason Yobbi (South Park, Pa./South Park) sent in a free kick which was then booted past the Thiel keeper by Jacob Fetterman (Pottstown, Pa./The Hill School) for the 83rd-minute equalizer, his fourth score of the season.
 
The Tomcats took the first lead of the game with a goal in the 42nd minute.
 
Prezioso led all Presidents with eight total shots in the game and put five on target while Paul Mokrzan (Hilliard, Ohio/Watterson) finished up with six shots and two on goal. Fetterman, Kotkiewicz and Garrett French (Palm, Pa./Homeschooled) also provided strong offensive efforts with four shots each and a combined five on goal.
 
Four other Presidents tallied shots in the contest to give the Presidents 33 total shots in the game, the second most in a match this season (42 shots at Hilbert on Sept. 9), as 15 of the 33 attempts were on goal.
 
Nick Stasko (Gibsonia, Pa./Pine-Richland) earned his eighth win of the season as the W&J keeper and made one save in 90 minutes of action aided by his defensive unit which did not surrender a single shot in the second half.
 
The Presidents will return home for their next match on Wednesday, Oct. 18, to face Saint Vincent in a 5:30 PAC showdown.
