Balanced scoring attack gives Chapman 6-0 win

ORANGE, Calif. -  Five players scored goals, two of which came from junior F Dean Sewitz, as the Chapman University men's soccer team defeated visiting Caltech 6-0 at Wilson Field on Monday evening. The victory was the Panthers' fourth straight and at 5-1 it's their fastest start since 1995.

Sewitz scored Chapman's first goal of the game in the 7th minute and it looked as if the Panthers were going to run away with the game early. Caltech put up a tough defensive front for next 30 minutes until sophomore F Dalton Sweaney broke the game open on a breakaway goal which gave Chapman a 2-0 advantage. Five minutes later, junior F Matt Prouty scored off a corner kick by senior M Cris Bacharach pushing Chapman's first half lead to 3-0.

In the second half, Sewitz scored his second goal of the game on an assist from junior M Jeff Shah. Chapman added a goal by Cris Bacharach in the 57th minute and another by freshman M Brett Richardson in the 83rd minute to seal the victory.

Chapman out-shot Caltech 31-5 for the game with all five shots coming in the second half for the Beavers. Sophomore GK Tyler Hadzinsky and freshman GK Matt Bernhardt combined on the shutout.
