The Wright State men's soccer team pulled out its second straight 2-1 overtime victory Tuesday night, this time over Cleveland State in Horizon League action at Alumni Field.

The Raiders opened the scoring at the 10:29 mark of the first half as freshman Justin Laird tallied his fourth goal of the season, with Bryce Rockwell-Ashton recording his second assist of the year.

Cleveland State (2-6-1, 0-1-1 Horizon), though, came back and tied the game with just 7:07 remaining in regulation as Mike Derezic scored his first goal of the year on an assist by Manuel Conde.

WSU, however, needed just 2:04 in the extra period to claim the victory as sophomore Derek Zuniga drove a penalty kick into the right side of the net, his third goal of the season.  The Raiders are now a perfect 5 for 5 on the season in penalty kicks, with Zuniga accounting for three of those.

"Cleveland State is a very good team and really gave us all we could handle," said head coach Bryan Davis.  "I think Ali (Kazemaini) does one heck of a job with them.  We took advantage of our opportunities, which for a young group shows progress."

"It's a long season and we still have a ton to improve on," added Davis.  "We will get back to work tomorrow and we will continue to improve."

The Vikings held a 15-13 shot advantage, including a 12-4 differential in the second half, while the Raiders led 7-4 in corner kicks.

Wright State (6-2-1, 2-0 Horizon) continues the three-game homestand on Saturday, taking on Xavier at 7:00.  That match will be the second of a doubleheader as the WSU women face nationally-ranked Milwaukee at 5:00.
