Darryl Gordon (Fr., Miami, Fla.) and Romain Onteniente (So., Nice, France) scored two goals each with Gordon's first goal proving to be the game-winner in a 4-1 result in favor of Nova Southeastern (4-0) over Georgia Southwestern State (0-5) on Sunday evening at the NSU Soccer Complex.

Onteniente opened the scoring in the sixth minute with his third goal of the season after Hurricanes' goalkeeper Alex Crandall spilled the ball inside his own six-yard box.

In the 23rd minute, the 'Canes broke an NSU shutout streak that lasted 295 minutes to begin the 2007 season as Thomas Sirmans scored after a corner kick, which deflected off the hands of Sharks' 'keeper Jarod Rennick (Sr., Allen, Texas).

The score remained knotted at 1-1 until the 64th minute when Gordon, a second half substitute, scored from the right side of the 18-yard box for his first career goal.

Six minutes later, Gordon struck again after a pass from Aly Hassan (Fr., Weston, Fla.) to the right flank that found the lower left corner of the net.

In the 85th minute, Onteniente would add one more for good measure, giving him four goals on the season for a 4-1 lead.

For the game, NSU outshot Georgia Southwestern 27-7 in a physical game which featured 33 total fouls and six total cards.

NSU will be back in action on Friday, September 7 as they host on the Alabama-Huntsville Chargers at 7pm at the NSU Soccer Complex.
