Greenville, S.C. – Hugo Moldin and Thaddeus Dennis netted first half goals as Wofford claimed a 2-0 victory over Furman in Southern Conference men's soccer play on Saturday night at Stone Stadium.
 
The Terriers broke the deadlock less than eight minutes before halftime. Jackson Wrobel crossed a corner kick towards the far post that Dennis headed back to the top of the six-yard box for Moldin to sweep into the left side of the net at the 37:05 mark for his first score of the season.
 
Dennis doubled the lead for Wofford at 42:06. Jakob Anderson centered a pass to the substitute, who touched his shot past Furman's Ben Roberts from close range for his first goal of 2022.
 
"We're disappointed to give up two goals tonight," said Paladin head coach Doug Allison. "We played much better in the second half, but we have to take advantage of our chances."
 
The Paladins forced Wofford's Cameron Victor into five second-half saves, but Furman was unable to find the back of the net. Victor finished with six saves to earn the clean sheet, while Roberts stopped five shots for Furman.
 
Wofford (4-6-2, 1-1-1 SoCon) held a 7-6 advantage in shots on goal despite the Paladins posting a 16-13 edge in total attempts. 
 
Furman (5-4-4, 0-2-1 SoCon) is back at home on Tuesday night when it hosts Presbyterian at 7 p.m. Admission is free as part of Upstate Community Night and CESA Night.
