Barnes posts third-straight clean sheet

Box Score  

BABSON PARK, Fla. - Goalkeeper Ben Barnes posted his third-straight and sixth-career clean sheet, as Thomas rolled to its eighth-straight triumph over Webber International (Fla.) following a 2-0 win Wednesday afternoon in The Sun Conference (TSC) play at Legion Field. The Night Hawks have outscored the Warriors 13-5 in the last four meetings in Babson Park.

Thomas (3-4-1, 1-0-1 TSC) improves to 6-0 all-time against Webber International (2-3, 0-2 TSC) in league play. The Warriors have been outscored in their last three contests this season, 9-0.

Coach Ricky Zambrano's squad has won 11 of its last 16 road games.

"The guys battled hard and played a much inspired match," Zambrano said. "Webber International was relentless and stayed in the game, but we matched their desire and came out on top."

Leo Thompson (7) opened the scoring in the 19th minute when he beat Webber International netminder Randy Chesson on a penalty kick. Thompson has scored at least one point in seven of eight matches this year.

Sam Eyes (4) added an insurance goal in the 71st minute with an assist from Gavin Rochford-Smith.

Thompson, Rochford-Smith and Eyes each had one shot on goal.

Gary O'Brien and Noel Omondi recorded one shot on goal apiece in the loss.

Barnes (2-1-1) stopped two shots in 90 minutes. Thomas has not allowed a goal in its last 314:47, a span of four games.

Chesson (2-2) had one save in 90 minutes.

The Night Hawks return to TU Soccer Complex on Saturday for conference action when they host No. 17 Saint Thomas (Fla.). Kickoff is set for Noon ET.
