WEST LIBERTY — The West Virginia Wesleyan men’s soccer team traveled to West Liberty University Sunday and walked out with a 1-1 tie and a guaranteed spot in the Mountain East Conference postseason.
After a scoreless first half, the Hilltoppers got on the board quickly when Alex Watt scored on an assist by Brody Wall in the 47th minute.
At 73:07, Bobcat Dillon Rajkovic scored his sixth goal of the year on a familiar blast from outside the left side of the penalty box to the far corner. Dajun Barthley recorded the assist.
The top four seeds for the upcoming MEC tournament are set with Charleston, Concord, Frostburg and Davis & Elkins holding those spots, respectively.
