Men's Soccer Beats PCC 6-0 in Home Opener

Gabriel Arraes had three of the six goals for the Argos

Box Score Pensacola, Fla.- West Florida came off the almost two week break due to weather cancelations with a win over Pensacola Christian tonight. This is their first home game in two years.

The Argos improve their record to 3-0-1 for the 2021 season while PCC falls to 2-7.

During the first half, the Argos held most of the offensive possessions. West Florida outshot the Eagles 22-3. Both teams were scoreless in the first twenty minutes of play. Finally, the first goal was made by #26 Keegan Ancelin assisted by #10 Ed Chappe. This dynamic duo has really been connecting and converting offensively for the Argos.

After the first goal, the Argos started being more aggressive offensively with goals by midfielders, #8 Bernardo Torres and #7 Kainan Dos Santos. Defensively, the Argos were like a brick wall with #5 Elijah Howe and #4 Furkan Artar to stop any offensive drives the Eagles had. West Florida was able to cap off the half with a 5-0 lead over the Eagles.

Starting the second half, UWF brought in many different faces including #13 Owen Hawkins, #6 Jacob Tankersley, and #19 Bishop Bosland. The Argos improved their lead in the sixty-eighth minute of play with a goal by #9 Gabriel Arraes to increase the lead to six.

Senior forward, #9 Gabriel Arraes had a stellar night with three out of the six goals for the Argos. He would have the final goal to cap off a great night for the Argos leading them to beat the Eagles 6-0. There could've been more goals for West Florida, but the Eagles goalkeeper, Adam Lund had a great game with a total of seven saves.

Next Up: West Florida will host their first GSC matchups against Union on Friday, Oct. 1 at 5:00 PM and Sunday, Oct. 3 at 12:30 PM against Christian Brothers.
