No. 21 Bees sting Saints, 2-0

SAVANNAH, Ga.— Richard Hurlin opened the scoring with a goal just 42 seconds into the match leading the 21st-ranked Savannah College of Art & Design past Flagler College, 2-0, in a Florida Sun Conference men’s soccer match Tuesday afternoon at Forsyth Park.

Hurlin scored on a through ball down the left side off an assists by Matt Engele to give SCAD (6-0, 3-0 Florida Sun) the early 1-0 advantage. Minutes later, Adam Jones converted a free kick by Hurlin into the goal from six yards out.

James Mason recorded the shutout with nine saves for the Bees.

Daniel Knop (Sydney, Australia/Narrabeen Sports HS) had four shots for Flagler (0-4, 0-1). Andres Jaramillo (Orlando, Fla./Cypress Creek HS) had the Saints’ best scoring opportunity in the match with seven minutes remaining. He fired a couple of shots on net, one saved by Mason, the other, off the rebound, almost made it to the goal line, but SCAD’s Jason Smith cleared the ball out of the goal box. Jordan Holtz (Clermont, Fla./South Lake HS) recorded six saves for the Saints.

Flagler College will play its first match at home Saturday night at 7 p.m. against conference-rival, St. Thomas University.
