GREENSBORO, N.C. – Three second half goals downed the men's soccer team at UNCG Saturday night, resulting in a 3-0 defeat at UNCG Soccer Stadium.
 
Three different Spartans provided goals for the home team in the second half, as the first period went scoreless.
 
 Midfielder Matteo Busio opened the scoring for UNCG (9-5-3, 5-1-2 SoCon). Busio converted a penalty kick opportunity past Terrier goalkeeper Garrett Closs in the 59th minute. Seven minutes later, midfielder Leeroy Maguraushe scored on a cross into the box from forward Jacques Francois, giving UNCG a 2-0 lead with less than 25 minutes to play.
 
Midfielder Mat Mattis netted UNCG's final goal of the match in the 82nd minute after Busio fed him a crossing ball into the box.
 
The Terriers (8-5-2, 3-4-1) could not get things going offensively, taking only six shots in the match with four of them being shots on goal. Wofford was also held to two corner opportunities compared to UNCG's six corner attempts.
 
Wofford's closest scoring chance came in the 85th minute. Defender Connor Davis won a scramble for the ball in the box and took a close range shot that Spartan goalkeeper Jon Milligan was able to get his body on to save the shot. Midfielder Jonathan Dean followed up with another shot 10 seconds later that Milligan was able to again save the shot and keep Wofford off the scoreboard.
 
The shutout loss is the first of the season for the Terriers. Milligan earned the shutout victory in net for the Spartans while making four saves. Closs took the loss for the Terriers, saving six shots over the full 90 minutes.
 
Wofford falls to 4-21-1 all-time against UNCG, including a 1-12 record when playing at UNCG Soccer Stadium. This also continues the Terriers' winless streak to four matches, their longest since 2013 when the team started the season 0-3-1.
 
The team returns home for their final home match of the regular season Tuesday night against Furman. The Terriers will hold Senior Day celebrations before the match begins, which is set for 7 p.m.
