CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. -- Campbellsville University men's soccer snapped a three-game losing streak with a 4-0 Mid-South Conference shutout over Cumberland University on Wednesday Finley Stadium and Citizens Bank Field.

 

With the win, the Tigers improve to a 5-3 overall record on the season and pull even in the MSC at 1-1.

Campbellsville's first goal came in the 10th minute when sophomore forward Gustav Carlsson hooked up with freshman Roraigh Yearwood for a 1-0 Campbellsville lead.

Yearwood added another goal in the 21st minute for a 2-0 halftime lead. Campbellsville finished the first half with 11 total shots on goal. Cumberland University entered the break with only four.

Carlsson played the ball into the box on a corner-kick, finding Kennedy in a sea of Cumberland uniforms for a 3-0 lead.

The last Tiger goal did not come until the 76th minute, when senior midfielder Pontus Yngve was spotted by freshman Chris Moyo. Moyo played the ball through a Cumberland defender, connecting with Yngve in mid-stride. Yngve fired the ball into the back of net for the 4-0 tally.

Goalkeeper Max Malachiyev had two saves for his third shut out of the season. Cumberland's keeper, Sully Shattuck, had eight.
