Bennett's OT Goal Lifts Madison

On Monday, the Madison High boys soccer dealt Hanover Park its first home loss of the season, according to Madison head coach Frank Nunez.

After regulation ended with the score tied 0-0, the game headed into overtime. But in the ninth minute of overtime, Madison's Tyler Schlesinger put a corner kick into the middle of the box. Senior striker Vincent Bennett then ripped a shot into the upper right corner of the goal, just beyond the reach Hanover Park goalkeeper Tom Pescatore, giving Madison a hard-fought 1-0 win.

Pescatore, who Nunez said was "unbelievable all game," stopped 11 shots on Monday, while Madison goalie Matt Gilbert stopped four shots to seal the Dodger shutout.

The win lifted Madison's record to 8-5 this season, while Hanover Park fell to 6-4-1.
