Pitt men’s soccer notches 3-2 win over Temple
The Pitt men’s soccer team hosted in-state rival Temple on Monday night after suffering losses to Cleveland State and Virginia Tech over the previous week, and the result was an uplifting change of pace, as the Panthers were able to top the Owls 3-2 at Ambrose Urbanic Field.
In addition to the positive result, Pitt showed a degree of dominance, as the team never trailed in the contest. Midfielder Javi Perez opened up the scoring in the 28th minute, slotting a penalty kick into the bottom right of the net. The kick came after Temple defender Akeem Prawl took down Pitt’s Robby Dambrot in the penalty area, and the goal resulted in a long-held 1-0 lead.
