Ohio Northern University Men's Soccer: 1-0 Win over Mount Union, Bears are 2-0 OAC

In their OAC home opener Saturday, the ONU men controlled the run of play, out shooting the visiting Mount Union Purple Raiders 24-8, and earning 10 corner kicks to UMU's 3. However despite quality chances for ONU as well as several strong counterattacking opportunities for Mount - excellent team defense and timely goalkeeping for both teams had the contest knotted at 0-0 and looking like overtime would be necessary.

Sophomore Cameron Johnson would prevent that overtime late in the contest with his 7th goal of the season and 2nd game winner.

In the 87th minute a deflected Poal Bear shot was sailing out of play high far post -but an excellent effort by Senior forward Dan Otanicar to head the ball back across the face of goal kept the chance alive. UMU keeper Jon Critell saved an initial redirect effort from Christian Huelsman, but Cameron Johnson was able to head home the rebound for the decisive goal.

The Polar Bear JV travels to Ohio Wesleyan Monday and hosts NAIA opponent Rio Grande on Thursday. The Varsity squad returns to action next Saturday at Capital.
