EARLY GOALS WIN REGION CLASH FOR NIAGARA UNITED

Niagara United defeated its regional rival St. Catharines Wolves 3-2 in the only 
game played in the Canadian Soccer League Wednesday.

Niagara’s goals all came in the first half with Rudy Pikzinski scoring the opening 
goal after eight minutes in an entertaining encounter at Club Roma, St. Catharines. 
Pikzinski caught the top left corner of the net with a drive from 12 yards to put 
the visitors one-up.

Defender Matt Waddington made it 2-0 at the 15th minute mark and Gary Boughton 
struck the third goal for Niagara United when he found the middle of the net out 
of reach of St. Catharines goalkeeper Matthew Greco for a 3-0 score at 32 minutes.

St. Catharines attempted to get back into the game with some success, starting with 
a goal by midfielder Lucas Folino who headed in a right wing cross to make it 3-1 
at the 34th minute and Folino scored a second goal when he beat Niagara goalkeeper 
Brad Gemmell 10 minutes later for a 3-2 score at the 44th minute mark and 
at the final whistle.

Niagara United improve to a 3-13-3 WLT record for 12 points, but remain at the bottom 
of the standings, while St. Catharines are now at 6-12-0 for 18 points in eighth position.

One other game scheduled for Wednesday, the Serbian White Eagles vs. Toronto Croatia 
clash due to be played at Centennial Stadium in Toronto was postponed due to earlier 
damage to the playing surface, which is now under repair.
