A potent forward line shot 39 times and connected seven as the Yardling soccer team shut out the B.U. freshmen 7-0 Saturday at Harvard.
Two Crimson booters accounted for all seven Harvard tallies. Solomon Gomez, moving to right wing from his usual inside left slot, scored four times. Center forward Peter Bogovich added the other three goals, one with the unintended assist of a B.U. defender.
After a first-quarter stalemate, the Yardlings began to pick apart B.U.'s defense. Gomez, dribbling and feinting expertly, posted his first goal early in the second period when he banged in a pass from left wing Bill Runyan. Minutes later, he scored again and the rout was on. The second half was all Harvard's, as Gomez and Bogovich booted in their five insurance tallies.
The freshman victory was their third in three season outings. Tufts and M.I.T. have bowed 6-1 and 6-0 respectively to the Yardling scoring machine.
The Yardlings face an undefeated Exeter team on Wednesday in what should prove to be their stiffest test so far.
