Newark, Del.- For the first time in 2018, Georgian Court University was kept off the scoreboard as the Lions were denied by Wilmington University, 2-0, Wednesday afternoon in Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference men's soccer action.

The Lions, 12-3 (8-2 CACC) on the year, now own a slim one-point lead over the victorious Wildcats (10-1-4, 7-1-2 CACC) atop the conference standings. The shutout marks GCU's first since falling at Bloomfield College, 1-0, in last season's CACC Championship Tournament quarterfinals.

The match remained scoreless up until the the very end of the 69th minute (68:59) when Wilmington's Tom Garratt (Jr.-Kingswinford, England) drained a penalty kick for his 10th tally of the season. The Wildcats pounced again just moments later (70:06) as Will Stone (Sr.-Littlehampton, England) ripped his seventh of the year to secure the win.

WU outshot the Lions, 10-6, with both clubs getting off four shots on goal.

Vinny Tasca (Sr.-Audubon, Pa.) secured the win in net for the Wildcats while Jamie Hickey suffered his first loss of the year (9-1) in frame for the Lions.

Georgian Court remains on the road for a trip to Post University this Saturday at 2:30 p.m.
