INDIANAPOLIS ¬ The
defense was again the difference Friday night as the Northern
Kentucky University men1s soccer team defeated
Indianapolis, 1-0, in Great Lakes Valley Conference play.
The Norse
(13-0 overall, 8-0 GLVC) got on the board in the 14th minute
off a well-executed free-kick play. Dan Impellizzeri sent
a long cross to Chad Cook, who flicked ahead to Braden Bishop
for his ninth goal of the season.
The NKU defense would lock down
from that point and make the goal stick, holding the Indianapolis
offense to just two shots
in the
second half, with none on goal. Indianapolis dropped to 9-3-2,
5-2-1 GLVC.
NKU goalkeeper Michael Lavric made two saves in
the victory. The Norse were voted No. 1 nationally in the NCAA
Division
II poll
earlier this week for the first time in history.
NKU will
finish its road trip Sunday against Saint Joseph's. BOX
