CU rallies to down Univ. of the Cumberlands

Box Score The University of the Cumberlands took a 2-0 lead in the first 11 minutes of the game Monday with two goals from Igor Petsch, but Campbellsville rallied to beat the No. 22 ranked Patriots for the first time in CU men's soccer history, 3-2.

"This is the result of our guys playing as a team," CU head coach Adam Preston. "It is the second helping of good football this season and there is more to come."

Alex Adams cut the lead in half in the 33rd minute with a goal assisted by Gustavo Valecillos.



Ramiro Sanchez collected his seventh and eighth goals of the season when he tied the game, 2-2, in the 65th minute on an assist by Casey Clarke and scored the game winner in the 90th minute, assisted by Adams.

"This is for all the guys who have ever worn a Campbellsville jersey," Valecillos said after the win.

Both teams had five yellow cards each in the physical match.

CU goalkeeper James Clements had six saves, while Dennis Kramer had five for Cumberlands.

Campbellsville (5-7-2) moves to 2-2 in the Mid-South. The Tigers will host St. Catharine College in a MSC game Thursday at 2 p.m.
