Oxford 1, Afton 0

OXFORD – Oxford hopped off the winless train picking up a shutout victory over Afton Tuesday afternoon.

Jeff Lawton scored in the game’s opening minutes getting a crossing pass from sophomore Kevin Davis. Oxford had far better scoring opportunities throughout the game, but Afton net-minder Matt Olin made at least three goal-saving stops.

“We knew coming into the game that it would be a tight one, and a good opportunity to get our first win,” said Oxford coach Matt Dorman. “I didn’t know what to expect, and we definitely needed this.”
