Springfield, MO – Grand View men's soccer returned to the pitch Saturday evening ready to play after dropping a match earlier in the week off a last-minute goal. The Vikings (5-8-1, 3-5-1) defeated the Crusader of Evangel University (2-11-2, 2-7) 4-1.

The lone goal for the Crusaders was a 30-yard rocket just seconds after Repetto's second goal to enter the break 2-1.

Lucas Malaguez (SR/Bauru, Brazil) joined teammate Repetto on the board shortly into the second half to give Grand View a 3-1 lead in the 54th minute of play.

Repetto sealed the deal for Grand View in the 64th minute of play with a header off a cross from Simone Raiola (SR/Triuggio, Italy).
