CALDWELL, Idaho - Benjamin Mangeac scored a pretty goal ten minutes into the second half and the Northwest Nazarene defense made it stand up, as the Crusaders completed a series sweep of The College of Idaho, winning 2-1 this afternoon at Simplot Stadium.

Alex Mangeac opened the scoring just six minutes into the match, blasting a 35-yard strike over the head of C of I keeper Trevor Spielman for the 1-0 lead. The Yotes would counter, as Matt Kelly slotted home a finish in the 38th minute off a Parker Waddell feed to tie the score at the break.

In the 55th minute, NNU got the winner, as Jose Oregon played a low cross from the left side across the goal mouth, finding the foot of Mangeac for the game-winner.

"We were dominate in the first 20 minutes and should have put the game away early," commented NNU head coach Coe Michaelson.  "But we did a good job in the second half to get the win and close out the match."

NNU had a 20-10 edge in shots and has now won all four meetings between the teams since the Crusaders reinstated the program in 2008.
