COLLEGE SOCCER Beavers top Denver for first NCAA win Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Nov. 21, 2014 at 2:00 AM Posted Nov. 21, 2014 at 2:00 AM » Social News CORVALLIS — The Oregon State men’s soccer team capped a signature day in the program’s 27-year history on Thursday with a 1-0 victory over Denver in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Their first NCAA win advanced the Beavers (12-7-1) into the round of 32, where they will face 12th-seeded Creighton (14-3-2) at 10:30 a.m. Sunday in Omaha, Neb. A Lorenz Field crowd of 953 was on its feet for the final minute as the Beavers completed Thursday’s hat trick of major accomplishments. Earlier in the day, senior forward Khiry Shelton was named Pacific-12 Conference player of the year, and forward Timmy Mueller was named the Pac-12’s freshman of the year. Another talented freshman, forward Jordan Jones, scored the lone goal against Denver at 16:32. Jones completed a nifty three-way combination with Shelton and freshman midfielder Graham Smith by burying a hard shot into the lower left-hand corner. Smith’s entry pass from the left side to Shelton started the combination; Shelton then dished off to Jones, who blasted the ball past DU keeper Nick Gardner for his eighth goal of the season. There were some anxious moments the rest of the way, as Denver had 10 corner kicks and several excellent chances. But OSU senior keeper Matt Bersano and the Beavers barred the door over the final 73 minutes to eliminate the Pioneers (11-8-1), the Summit League champions.
