WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Salisbury University men's soccer team recorded its second 7-0 shutout in a three-day span as it opened up Capital Athletic Conference play on the road Wednesday afternoon against Gallaudet University. This is 28th consecutive time in school history that SU has defeated Gallaudet. The Sea Gulls have never lost to the Bison.

Salisbury (4-2-1, 1-0 CAC) wasted no time as junior Nick Malone started the scoring onslaught in the ninth minute with his second goal of the year assisted by freshman Joe Rubel. This was Malone's second game-winning goal of the season.

The Gulls led 3-0 at the half and in the second half freshman Ben DeLisle started a goal barrage 15 minutes into the new half. SU scored its final four goals in less then a 10 minute span. Other SU goal scorers in that time frame were freshmen Chris Finney, Mike Napolitano and Dave Corrigan. Finney netted two goals to lead the maroon and gold with a game-high four points.

Gallaudet (0-6, 0-3 CAC) was credited with an own goal in the 25th minute which put the Gulls up 2-0. On Salisbury's six strikes the Sea Gulls recorded six assists. Senior Andrew Henciak led the way as he dished out two assists which give him three on the year. Sophomores Kyle Sterling, Justin McGrath and Kevin Mongello all contributed one assist for the maroon and gold.

Salisbury played all four goalies in the shutout win as sophomore starter Greg Wellinghoff (2-0) earned his second consecutive win. Senior Matt Blue, sophomore Josh Scotton and freshman Brandon Mumby all got in between the pipes for SU in the victory.

Bison goalie David Owens recorded the loss as he stopped 12 Sea Gull shots. Salisbury once again outshot its opponent this time by a margin of 32-0. The Gulls also attempted 20 corner kicks compared to zero for Gallaudet.

Salisbury will hit the road again on Sunday, September 23, as it travels to New York to meet up with the University of Rochester. SU won the first-ever meeting against UR last season, 1-0.
