GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Three different Washington and Lee men's soccer players scored a goal in a 3-0 victory over ODAC-foe Guilford on Saturday afternoon at Haworth Fields.

The Generals (7-3-1, 3-3-1) got on board early when junior midfielder Drew Crowley (Weston, Mass./Weston) found the back of the net unassisted at 18:35 to take a 1-0 lead into the half. W&L then extended its advantage in the second half as senior midfielder John Lindsay (Cockeysville, Md./Loyola Blakefield) scored off of a senior forward Whitt Larkin (Alexandria, Va./Episcopal) assist at 67:13. The Blue and White added another marker in the 77th minute when sophomore midfielder Ben Belair (McLean, Va./Langley) found Larkin, who slipped one past GC first-year goalkeeper Peter Truitt en route to the victory.

Sophomore Ben Bartlett (Towson, Md./McDonogh) played 90 minutes and registered two saves, while Truitt also played the duration and stopped five would-be goals for the Quakers (3-8-1, 2-3-1).

The Generals return to action on Wednesday when they host Ferrum for a 4:00 pm game.
