The Saint Vincent men's soccer team dropped a 3-0 non-conference decision to Hiram at the Charles A. Henry Field.

Hiram used two goals from all-NCAC forward Ryan Minick in the 15th and 49th minutes to propel it to victory. The Terriers added an insurance goal at 60:59 to bring the score to the final, 3-0, margin.

The hosts were led by 14 second-half shots and out-shot the Bearcats, 16-1, for the game, while also holding a 6-0 edge on corner kicks. Sophomore Trevor Cutlip recorded the lone shot on SVC, which was turned away by Hiram keeper Joe Rottinger.

Senior goalkeeper Jake Gilbertson allowed all three Terrier goals while making two saves in 70 minutes. Freshman Eric Houghton played the final 20 minutes between the pipes, allowing no goals while recording four saves.
