SPRINGFIELD, Ohio – The Allegheny men’s soccer team (10-5, 5-2 NCAC) allowed more than one goal in a game for the first time in over a month, as the Gators had their four-game win streak snapped at Wittenberg (11-3-2, 2-1-1 NCAC) on Saturday afternoon.

The game went scoreless until the 69th minute when Wittenberg’s Shane Price scored his first of two unassisted goals on the day. He would add another at the 82:26 mark to give the Tigers a 2-0 win.

Ryan Larkin (Pittsburgh, Pa./Baldwin) was dealt the loss in goal despite stopping five shots while Ben McAnnis-Entenman picked up four saves in the shutout for Wittenberg.
