Indarta Scores First Collegiate Goal In Setback Against Whitman

Zidane Indarta snapped Whitman's shutout streak at over 300 minutes

WALLA WALLA, Wash.—Sophomore Zidane Indarta scored his first collegiate goal but Lewis & Clark College men's soccer fell 3-1 to Northwest Conference leaders Whitman College on Sunday afternoon at the Whitman Athletic Fields. 

THE BASICS
 
Whitman 3, Lewis & Clark 1
(Lewis & Clark 0-10, NWC 0-6) 
(Whitman 8-1-1, NWC 5-0-1) 
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
 
For the second-straight day, Lewis & Clark broke up a shutout bid in the final three minutes, but it wasn't enough to overcome an early deficit. 
 
Indarta scored with 72 seconds to play to earn his first collegiate marker. The Pioneers pushed the ball down the field on a counter but the long ball went all the way into the goal box where the goalie came out to play it. With the keeper well off his line, he tried to play it short to a teammate but found Indarta just outside the 18-yard box on the far side. The sophomore winger floated a high shot over the keeper and under the bar to make it 3-1. 
 
Whitman, who came into the game with a league-high three-game winning streak, scored twice in the opening 10 minutes to take control of the game. Sawyer Valero scored his sixth goal of the season 31 seconds in, when Zachary Stonier dribbled along the goal line and sent a cut back to the middle of the net for an easy Valero tap-in. 
 
The hosts tacked on a second goal at 9:23. This time Stonier found Kevin Serrano to make it 2-0 Whitman inside the opening 10 minutes. 
 
Whitman added a third goal with under 15 minutes to play. Riki Kobayashi scored his second goal of the year off a feed from Takahiro Hikida. 
 
Sophomore Micaiah Garan and junior Ben Tallent combined for three saves in the contest. Garan made one save on three shots in the opening 72:41, before Tallent came off the bench to make two saves on three shots in the final 17:19. 
 
BY THE NUMBERS
  • Men's soccer has now scored a goal in three-straight conference games for the first time in program history. Lewis & Clark has scored 4 goals in their first six conference games. Last season, the Pioneers finished with six goals in 16 conference games.
  • Indarta's goal in the final minutes snapped Whitman's scoreless streak that had lasted over three full games. The goal was the first marker conceded by the Blues defense in 301:40. 
  • Whitman finished with a 19-2 edge on shots and 7-1 edge in shots on goal. The Pioneers limited Whitman to a 2-1 edge in corner kicks. 
  • Sophomore Owen Carroll posted Lewis & Clark's other shot during the contest. 
  • Emmett Olson and Simon McGlothern both played the full 90 minutes for Lewis & Clark.
  • First year Emmet McDonough made his second collegiate start and first career NWC start on Sunday.

After a brutal stretch of five games in nine days, Lewis & Clark will be off until Saturday, when they host Pacific University at Noon.
