WILKES-BARRE -- Visiting Lebanon Valley College opened up a 3-0 halftime lead en route to a 4-1 victory over host King's College in the season opening contest for both teams Friday at Betzler Fields.
 
Ben Wagner scored just 1:30 into the contest off a Zach Barkus assist for the Flying Dutchmen, before Rich Chesney upped the lead to 2-0 at 21:34.  The Dutchmen would take a three-goal half-time advantage when Adam Myers struck net with just 1:41 on the clock.

After King Shaah scored off a Joe Kopchick assist with 30:00 left in the match for a 4-0 LVC lead, King's would finally reach the scoreboard when Cameron Audette found the back of the net with 18:10 on the clock.

Lebanon Valley outshot King's 20-4 while both teams took five corner kicks.  King's freshman goalie Kaleb Smith made 11 saves in his collegiate debut.
