Anders Corey, Writer

The Biola men’s soccer team improved to 2-0 Friday night with a 4-1 win against visiting Marymount College. Four players putting the ball in the back of the net propelled the Eagles to victory.

Senior forward Marco Ruvalcaba started the scoring in 20th minute, putting in a pass from sophomore forward Daniel Chew. Chew then added a goal of his own in the 31st minute, giving the Eagles a 2-0 lead.

The score remained 2-0 until the 42nd when Marymount junior Rimar Daisley-West snuck a breakaway goal past Biola goaltender, senior keeper Aaron Fenlason to make it a 2-1 game.

Eagles create a three-point cushion

The Eagles bounced right back in the 49th minute when sophomore forward Carlos Ballesteros added a breakaway goal of his own off of another assist from Chew.

Sophomore midfielder Kevin Kiser put the game away for Biola with a beautiful goal from 37 yards out in minute 62 to give the Eagles a comfortable 4-1 lead.

Four goals were plenty of support for Fenlason who, while allowing one goal, also had one save.

The Eagles are home again Monday, Sept. 5 against Whittier College at 7 p.m.
