Enders' Overtime Goal Leads Men's Soccer Past Saint Bonaventure

St. BONAVENTURE, NY ? Freshman striker Jon Enders scored the contest?s only goal at 93:26, propelling the Xavier University men?s soccer team to a 1-0 overtime victory over St. Bonaventure in New York. The victory improves the Musketeer?s record to 3-7-0 overall and 1-1-0 in Conference action. The Bonnies slip to 5-3-1 on the year, 1-1-0 in the loop.

The victory marked head coach Jack Hermans' 100th win of his career.

Defender Chris Wolever played a ball to sophomore Matt Kmetz who struck a cross through the box and found the head of Enders. Enders hit a header over the outstretched arms of St. Bonaventure keeper Sean Eyde to give XU its first conference victory of the season.

Wolever's assist capped a five-point week for the junior. He had registered five points in his previous two years at XU.
