The College of Wooster men's soccer team tied its game with Earlham College late in the first half, only to see the Quakers steal back the momentum early in the second with a goal that held up as the game-winner as the Fighting Scots dropped a 2-1 decision at Richmond, Ind.

Behind 1-0, Wooster (2-5-1) struck for the equalizer when freshman Abdoul-Ahad Sene connected on a feed from Lucas Hunt during the 43rd minute. It was Sene's first collegiate goal, while Hunt recorded his third assist of the week.

Shortly after the halftime break, Earlham (2-3) regained the advantage via a score in the 49th minute.

The Scots had a series of chances to tie again, including four corner kicks, compared to the Quakers' three, but they were only able to get two shot attempts off the second 45 minutes.

Wooster continues its non-conference schedule on Wednesday night when it welcomes regionally-ranked Case Western Reserve University (6-1) to John P. Papp Stadium.
