The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater men's soccer team played its first match at Fiskum Field since late September Friday afternoon, tallying two first half goals on the way to a 3-1 victory against Augsburg (Minn.).
 
The Warhawks (12-5-1 overall) found the back of the net twice in a two-minute span late in the first half to take control of the match.
 
Goalkeeper Jake King (McHenry, Ill./McHenry West) recorded nine saves to lead the defense.
 
Each of UW-Whitewater's first two goals came from a substitute late in the first half. Will Morgan (Naperville, Ill./Central) started the scoring in the 39th minute, taking a pass from Matthew Waters (Glen Ellyn, Ill./Glenbard South) for his first goal of the year.
 
Faizan Mohiuddin (South Elgin, Ill./St. Charles North) tallied the team's second goal in the 41st minute, his second of the season and the game-winner, to double the UW-W lead.
 
The Auggies (12-4) put two shots on goal in the first 12 minutes of the second half. The Warhawks earned a corner kick in the 61st minute and, 25 seconds later, Zack Kristy (Burr Ridge, Ill./Lyons Township) scored his first goal of the year on an assist from Jacob Mouille (Waunakee, Wis./Waunakee) to make it 3-0.
 
Augsburg responded three minutes later with its first goal of the contest to cut its deficit back to two goals.
 
From there, King and the UW-Whitewater defense allowed only three shots, none on goal.
 
The Warhawks will put their unbeaten home mark (3-0-1) on the line Saturday as they host Augustana (Ill.) starting at 7 p.m. Approximately 20 minutes prior to the start of match, King, Jake Farley (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield North), Joey Pumo (Waukesha, Wis./Waukesha North), Alec Sykes (Milwaukee, Wis./West Allis Hale), Matthew Waters (Glen Ellyn, Ill./Glenbard South) and Steven Wright (Prior Lake, Minn./Prior Lake) will be recognized as part of Senior Day presented by Educators Credit Union.
