Hershey FC picks up first two wins over West Chester United and Buxmont Torch

After surrendering 23 goals in five straight losses to start the season, Hershey FC’s defense limited Keystone Conference leaders West Chester United to one goal and shut down Buxmont Torch to pick up two wins last week in National Premier League Soccer action.

Coming off a 6-5 loss to Junior Lone Star FC where Joel Teston helped spark a rally with four goals, it was Hershey FC’s defense in front of goalkeeper Nick Jakobson that shut down Buxmont Torch on Saturday, paving the way for an 89th game-winner from Wyatt Fabian.

Hershey followed up the 1-0 win with four goals on Sunday against a team, West Chester United, that had only conceded one goal from the penalty spot in their first seven matches of their inaugural NPSL campaign.
