Terriers allow two by Livingston in loss to Mountaineers

Box Score BOONE, N.C. -- Two goals less than a minute apart was all host Appalachian State needed to earn a 2-0 victory against visiting Wofford in Southern Conference men's soccer action Wednesday afternoon at the ASU Soccer Stadium in Boone, N.C.

The two teams entered the half deadlocked at 0-0 with the Terriers nearly matching the NSCAA/adidas South region-ranked Mountaineers in shots, only trailing 9-7 at the break. However, Appalachian State (6-2-2, 2-0 SoCon) would score twice in the second frame for the difference.

Michael Walters sent a corner kick to the near post, where the ball found the head of McCoy Livingston who pushed it past the Wofford (2-6-1, 0-2 SoCon) defense for the game's first tally at 73:07.

Less than a minute later, at 73:48, the pair connected again. Once again, Livingston used his head to put the ball into the net, this time from six yards out, following a Walters free kick.

Freshman Wilson Hood paced the Terriers with four shots, three on goal. Sean Sassano led all players with seven attempts.

Greg Walters collected five saves in net for the Mountaineers for the shutout, while Joey Taylor gathered seven stops in the cage for Wofford.

The Terriers will return to Snyder Field for their next match, a 6 p.m. Saturday meeting with perennial league power UNC Greensboro.
