Yellowjackets Roll to Men’s Soccer Win at Colorado Christian (October 20, 2002)

LAKEWOOD, CO – The MSU Billings Yellowjackets used three first-half goals Sunday to cruise to a 3-1 men’s soccer victory over Colorado Christian University.  A stifling Yellowjacket defense limited the Cougars to just two first-half shots, and three different Jackets found the net in the opening stanza as MSUB won its sixth game of the season.

Mike Gallegos opened the scoring in the 19th minute with his sixth goal of the season to give MSU Billings a 1-0 lead.  Thomas Pertuit picked up his fourth assist of the season as he crossed the ball in front of the net for Gallegos’s header. 

Just ten minutes later, Mark Cipolla netted his team-leading 11th goal as he beat the Cougar goalkeeper one-on-one for the eventual game-winning goal.  Gallegos picked up the assist and his 15th point of the year.  Cipolla leads the Yellowjackets with 24 points.

In the 45th minute, Kyle Bales’s third goal of the season gave the Yellowjackets a 3-0 cushion after Hugh Kinnear found him on a breakaway.  It was Kinnear’s third assists of the season.

Yacine Zerizef recorded one save in the opening half and held CCU scoreless.  Senior Kevin Petritz was in goal for the Yellowjackets in the second period as the Cougars got off 18 shots.  Petritz gave up one goal in the 53rd minute, but recorded two saves to preserve the win.  MSUB improved to 6-10 on the season.

The Yellowjackets will host Flathead CC on Saturday afternoon at Yellowjacket Field at the COT.  Game time is set for 1:30 p.m.  MSUB will close out the season on November 3 when the Jackets travel to Bismarck to face the University of Mary.
