The Lancaster Bible College men's soccer team saw its chances at a North Eastern Athletic Conference Championship go up in smoke in Keuka Park, N.Y. on Tuesday as the Chargers lost to Keuka, 1-0 on a late second-half goal. The loss drops the Chargers to 10-10 overall, while Keuka improves to 11-3-3. The Wolves move on to the NEAC Semifinals where they will face Penn St. Abington.

How it Happened: Lancaster Bible opened the game strong as they recorded four of the game's first five shots. Keuka goalkeeper Willie Romero was up to the task and made two saves as the Wolves' offense woke up later in the half. Keuka recorded the final six shots of the first half, but none of them were on goal and the teams went into halftime knotted at 0-0.

The Wolves pushed the pace from the get-go in the second half as Lancaster Bible goalkeeper Vann Sutphin made a save just 4:16 into the second half. Keuka's Chris Millard hit the crossbar at 57:51 and Sutphin made another save eight seconds late to keep the Wolves off of the scoreboard.

Lancaster Bible had its own chances later in the half as junior Spencer Lockard's header off a corner kick went up over the bar at 65:06. Keuka continued to control much of the play in the second half and was finally rewarded at 84:03 when Paulin Kolodja scored in the box off a pass from Rachid Blanken. 

The Chargers pressed for the equalizer, but could not generate any offensive chances and saw their NEAC hopes end in the quarterfinals.

By the Numbers: Keuka outshot Lancaster Bible, 18-6, but only 6-3 in shots on goal...Keuka also led in corner kicks, 4-3...Sutphin made five saves, all of them in the second half...Kolodja's goal was his 13th of the season.

The Coach Says: "Keuka is very good going forward and we had to play physical for 90 minutes, which we did," Lancaster Bible Head Coach Tom Ardt said. "I thought we limited their chances and played well defensively, but we didn't have enough offense. We had some opportunities, but needed more."

"Keuka was able to get a chance late and made a good pass and finish for the goal," Ardt said. "We worked hard today. Keuka is a big, strong team, but I thought we played well and it's disappointing to see it end this way for us in the NEAC Playoffs again. Best of luck to Keuka going forward, they are a good, physical team."
