The Wright State men's soccer team defeated Northern Kentucky 1-0 Saturday night at WSU's Alumni Field.

First Half Highlights

At 5:04, the Raiders were called for a penalty in the box. Wright State goalie Alex Williams came up with the big save as he dove to his left to stop the kick by NKU's Tom Suchecki. The teams exchanged opportunities until the Raiders Stefan Rokvic dented the net first for his seventh goal overall and sixth tally in the last five games. Senior Sam DeRoy picked up the assist. Rokvic and AJ Paterson each had two shots in the first half as the Raiders finished with six overall. NKU had two shots.

Second Half Highlights

Neither team scored in the second 45 but there was a lot of defense on both sides. The Raiders finished with 10 shots overall as Rokvic had three shots in the game. The Norse finished with eight shots. Williams picked up the shutout in the nets for WSU, making four saves.
