MOUNT BERRY, Ga –Jacob Antoine's brace helped the Berry Vikings defend Bob Pearson Field against Maryville Friday afternoon in men's soccer action.

"I think for that first 60 minutes we played really well," said Berry's head coach Richard Vardy.

Berry continued its consecutive win with a goal scored by the Vikings' striker Jacob Antoine withing the first 15 minutes of the first half, who later scored on the penalty kick for the Vikings leading them to the 2-0 win.

The intensity increased after the second half, leading the Vikings into a great challenge. Nevertheless, the Vikings had outstanding performances by their central defenders Michael Gul and freshman Zac Adkins.  

"Today's performance was great. I like that we got to rotate a bunch of the new guys that haven't had much of a chance to play yet, and they handled it pretty well," said Berry's midfielder Tracy Moon.

Berry showed great teamwork and outstanding defense. "We've been working hard all year on defense. It's not just our defenders; the whole team is defending. That's the basis of our success right now," said Vardy. "We played really well on Tuesday, we played well for most part of tonight, and I am happy with how we are developing."

The Vikings will play host to Piedmont Tuesday evening.
