Kyle Dickson scored midway through the first overtime period to give Tusculum College a 2-1 victory over Lenoir-Rhyne University in South Atlantic Conference men's soccer action Saturday night.

Dickson scored his first career goal from 30 yards at 4:16 of the first extra period as the Pioneers (5-7-0, 2-5-0 SAC) won for the first time in five overtime matches this season and picked up their second consecutive victory.

Cody Kammerzell also scored for the Pioneers, who led 1-0 before the Bears' Ben Jones tied the score in the 66th minute. The match remained deadlock until Dickson put home the game-winner on the Pioneers' third shot of the overtime period.

Tusculum outshot Lenoir-Rhyne 9-5 in the first half and was rewarded with just 57 seconds left until the halftime whistle. Kammerzell picked up the ball and went in on a breakaway against Bears keeper Stefan Dill, who was out of position to stop Kammerzell's third goal of the season and a 1-0 Pioneer lead.

The Bears (7-6-1, 2-4-1 SAC) had the better of play in the second half outshooting the Pioneers 13-5 and netting the equalizer at 65:21 on the ninth goal of the season by Jones. Tusculum nearly found the game-winner in regulation but a shot from Roberto Pimentel hit the post with 6:29 left.

Lenoir-Rhyne finished the match with a 19-17 advantage in shots over Tusculum, while both teams had six corner kicks. Victor Ohlin finished with five saves in goal for the Pioneers in the victory while Dill had three stops for the Bears.

Tusculum will be home for its next three matches, starting Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. against Lincoln Memorial at Pioneer Field.
