Walker's Late First Half Goal Leads Yellow Jackets to a 2-1 Victory

ASHLAND, Va. – Randolph-Macon men's soccer hosted Kean for the first time since 1993, a matchup that previously ended in a 3-0 victory for the Yellow Jackets.

The Basics

Score: Randolph-Macon 2, Kean 1
Venue: Ashland, Va. / Randolph-Macon College / Nunnally Field
Records: Randolph-Macon (2-1-0, 0-0-0 ODAC); Kean (0-3-0, 0-0-0 NJAC)

How It Happened

  • Randolph-Macon came out strong from the opening whistle. The Yellow Jackets struck first just 10 minutes into the match, when Wiley Eubank (Raleigh, N.C./Broughton) delivered a free kick that Grayson Woods (Charlotte, N.C./Myers Park) headed home to give the Lemon and Black a 1-0 lead.
  • RMC continued to apply pressure offensively, with Casey Royle(Midlothian, Va./Midlothian) posing a consistent threat throughout the game. Kean managed some offensive chances, but their efforts were limited thanks to strong defensive play by Zach Richards (Virginia Beach, Va./Landstown), Damien Jackson (Newport News, Va./Menchville), and goalkeeper Ethan Chenoweth (Newport News, Va./Warwick).
  • The Cougars eventually found the equalizer in the 38th minute, courtesy of a goal from Harrison Shaller. However, just three minutes later, freshman Jayden Walker (Suffolk, Va./Norfolk Collegiate) and Barrett Wilson (Lexington, S.C./Lexington) connected on a counterattack, with Wilson scoring to put RMC back in front 2-1 heading into halftime.
  • In the second half, Kean applied more offensive pressure, but the midfield play of Richards and Tyler Oakes (Nottingham, England/Toothill School) helped maintain control. Chenoweth made several key saves, including a crucial stop in the 60th minute, to preserve the lead.
  • The Yellow Jackets held firm through the final whistle to secure their second all-time win over Kean, earning a 2-1 victory.

Inside the Numbers

  • Chenoweth played the full 90 minutes and recorded six saves.

  • Walker and Wilson each registered their first collegiate points.
