The No. 7 Maryland men’s soccer team extended its win streak to four on Friday with a hard-fought road victory. The Terps prevailed 3-1 in the contest thanks to clutch goals from forward Joshua Bolma and midfielder Ben Bender.
The story of the match, however, was the scary scene late in the first period, when midfielder Malcolm Johnston was stretchered off the pitch after suffering a head injury.
Head coach Sasho Cirovski visited Johnston in the hospital after the game, giving an encouraging update on the captain’s condition.
In a post on the Maryland men’s soccer Twitter page, Cirovski said that Johnston suffered a concussion, but was cleared to travel back with the team and will begin his road to recovery.
