The season has turned around in a hurry for the Triton College men's soccer team. The Trojans took advantage of their busiest stretch of the season to reel off five straight victories. Triton played all five matches in a 10-day span to get back above the .500 mark with an 8-4-1 record.
The Trojans latest win came Oct. 2 at the Jorndt Athletic Complex Multi-Purpose Stadium by a 3-1 score over Kennedy-King College.
Oliver Salgado (Leyden) bookended the first and last goals.
Sebastian Maldonado (Elmwood Park) provided the other Triton tally against the Statesman.
Anthony Mata (York),
Emir Heto (Niles West) and
Luis Dominguez (Conant) were credited with assists.
Two nights earlier the Trojans picked up a 5-0 home win over Wright College.
Denis Dvoretskiy (Ridgewood) paced the Triton attack with a pair of goals and an assist. Maldonado,
Stephen Gonzalez (Proviso West) and
Jose Manjarrez (Elmwood Park) also found the back of the net for the Trojans.
Triton's win streak started by edging the reserve team from Dominican University 2-1 Sept. 23 in River Grove. Then the Trojans notched consecutive road wins at Milwaukee Tech (4-1) Sept. 25 and at McHenry County College (2-1) Sept. 28.
Triton will close out the regular season with four of their final five games at home beginning Wednesday, Oct. 9 vs. Rock Valley College.
