Staff report

Wednesday games …

SALISBURY — Carlos Henriquez and David Austin scored for Salisbury in a 2-0 Central Carolina Conference win against East Davidson on Wednesday.

Abdul Eliwa assisted on both goals for the Hornets (17-0-1, 10-0).

Robert Moulton, Yatti Avilez, Mario Perez, Mohammed Jabateh and keeper Finnegan Avery keyed the shutout.
“The good news is we are one win away from clinching the CCC outright,” Salisbury coach Matt Parrish said. “The bad news is that we didn’t play particularly well. We seemed disorganized and came out slow. We didn’t have a lot of energy and East Davidson clearly outplayed us in sections tonight.”
Up next for the Hornets is a home match against Lexington on Tuesday.
