ERIE, Pa -- Senior Andy Harding (Akron/Revere) scored with just under five minutes remaining to lead the Hiram College men's soccer team to a 2-1 victory over host Penn State-Behrend on Saturday evening.

The win gives the Terriers (2-0-0) the Herb Lauffer Memorial Tournament title.

Harding's goal came at the 85:14 mark, when he took a pass from senior Ryan Kramarz (Chesterland/West Geauga) and beat the keeper.

The goal was the first of the season for Harding.

The Lions (1-1-0) got on the board first when Jimmy Belack converted a penalty kick 10 minutes into the game.

HC responded seven minutes later when junior Tanner Mathews (Alliance/Marlington) converted a penalty kick of his own at the 17:57 mark.

Mathews scored two goals in the tournament to take home MVP honors.

After Harding's goal, the Lions had a chance to tie the game in the closing moments, but the Terrier defense was able to deny the attempt.

Sophomore Chris Lindemeyer (Lodi/Cloverleaf) made two stops in goal for Hiram for his first win of the season.

Penn State-Behrend held a 12-9 edge in shots and a 5-4 advantage in corner kicks.
