Taylor's Golden Goal Sends Men's Soccer to Big League Win Over No. 18 Creighton

CINCINNATI – Cam Taylor collected his first career golden goal on Wednesday night, playing the hero as Xavier men's soccer dispatched No. 18 Creighton 2-1 at XU Soccer Complex.

The sophomore defender found a deflection at the back post, coming off a free kick by Matt Nance, and headed it to the left of CU goalkeeper Alex Kapp to seal the win.

The win snapped a two-match skid for Xavier, which improved to 8-5-3 (4-2-1 BIG EAST) and vaulted into a three-way tie for second-place in the league with just two regular season matches remaining.
