Box score GREENEVILLE, Tenn.

--- A three-goal outburst over a four-minute span in the first half enabled Anderson University to pick up a 5-0 victory at Tusculum College in a South Atlantic Conference men's soccer match at the Niswonger Athletic Complex / Pioneer Field Saturday afternoon.

Lasse Sohrweide finished with a goal and three assists and Ben Jones score a pair of second-half goals as the Trojans improved to 9-4-1 overall and 4-2 in the SAC with the win, while the Pioneers fell to 2-8-3 overall and 1-5 in conference play. The Trojans finished with a 21-8 edge in shots over the Pioneers and had six different players record at least one point to come away with the win.

Ryan Messick put Anderson on the board at 13:44 as a long cross by Zach Denson was headed back in front by Sohrweide to Messick, who headed home his fourth goal of the season. At 15:18, James Moseley gave the Trojans a 2-0 lead as a corner kick by Denson was headed to the goal by Sohrweide, and Moseley tapped home his fifth goal of the season at the far post.

At 17:46, Sohrweide tallied his eighth goal of the season as he took a pass from Jones on the break and rifled home a shot to the far post, giving Anderson a 3-0 lead at intermission.

In the second half, Jones scored his third goal of the year at 58:46 as a square pass from Adrien Moufflet was flicked beautifully by Sohrweide to Jones on a run, and he found the net to make the score 4-0. Jones closed out the scoring at 70:33 on a blast from 20 yards out.

Tusculum keeper Andy Goellner made two saves in the match, while the combination of Lukas Hesse (71 minutes) and Benjamin Pepion (19 minutes) made one save apiece for Anderson.

The Pioneers continue their home schedule with a SAC battle against Lincoln Memorial University Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m.
