Dragons win GLIAC Championship

Box Score $website.include("options")

Neither a cold, wet, rainy day nor the visiting University of Findlay men's soccer team could slow down the red hot Tiffin University Dragons men's soccer team, as the 12th-ranked Dragons (12-3-1, 11-3 GLIAC) secured the 2014 GLIAC regular season championship with a 2-1 victory.

The title is the second in as many years for TU, which shared the title with Ohio Dominican last season. This time around the Dragons own the title outright. And they did it with the mix of stingy defense and offensive pressure that TU fans have come to expect this season.

The Dragons allowed just 4 shots on goal in the game while outshooting Findlay 24-9. Tiffin also allowed just one corner kick in the game.

The Dragons got on the board in the 40th minute when Michael McPeek sent a pass to Cedric Bruce-Kotey which he struck to the left of the keeper to give TU a 1-0 halftime lead.

Tiffin added to their lead in the 49th minute when McPeek drilled home a free kick from Andre Landell to make it 2-0.

The Oilers made it interesting in the 63rd minute when Jordan Gozelski took a pass from Mark Sleasman and cut the deficit in half. The Dragons defense, though, was up to the challenge, holding off the Oilers to preserve the title.

Tiffin will now host the GLIAC Tournament on Nov. 7-9.
