WYNDMOOR, PA – It only took one strike for the course of Tuesday evening’s PCL matchup between La Salle and Bonner to drastically change. Following a rather uneventful first half, the Explorers looked like a new team when they returned to the field.

Sixteen minutes in to the second half, senior Michael D’Angelo played a perfect through ball to the on-rushing Anthony Boyle who finished calmly. Not even a minute later, La Salle scored again, this time from D’Angelo. He would go on to score his second of the match minutes later along with senior, Spencer Patton, to complete the comfortable 4-0 victory.

Within a span of six minutes, the Explorers buried Bonner with four goals.

“Once we got one, we were getting more, we were getting chances, they were getting tired, and we put them away,” man of the match Michael D’Angelo said.

While La Salle’s offense exploded, their defense remained steady. Their two clean sheets in the PCL so far can be greatly attributed to junior goalkeeper, Brett Werner. Along with his highlight-reel save in the second half, Werner was instrumental in holding off Bonner’s attack.

“Brett bailed us out a couple times in the last couple games,” La Salle senior defender James Hughes said. “It’s great having him back there.”

La Salle looks to extend their win streak Friday against Cardinal O’Hara at 3:45 on Lower Bartley Field. Bonner will play away against Roman Catholic, also on Friday, at 7:30 PM at Lighthouse Field.
