WNCC men shut out Westminister College

ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo. - The Western Nebraska Community College men's soccer team shutout Westminster College Saturday evening at Rock Springs, Wyo., earning a 3-0 win over the four-year school.

WNCC held a 2-0 lead at intermission.

Tony Rocha scored the first goal for the Cougars followed by Jose Macias to put WNCC up at halftime. Miguel Leon finished off the scoring as the freshman scored on a penalty kick for the final goal of the match.
WNCC men's coach Todd Rasnic shoveled the line-up and it worked.

``We changed the formation of how we play and it worked really well,'' he said. ``We are going to stay with it because we had continuous offense.''Westminster College tied Western Wyoming Community College in double overtime. The WNCC and Western Wyoming men had to settle for a 1-1 tie on Friday. The Cougar women will finish off the Rock Springs road trip when they take on North Idaho College at 11 a.m. today. Western Wyoming fell to North Idaho 1-0 in overtime.

The Cougar men (2-2-1) will next be in action Sept. 23 as they host Laramie County Community College at 2 p.m. at Landers Soccer Complex.
