NORTH NEWTON, Kan. – Evangel Men's Soccer traveled to Kansas on Saturday (Oct. 24) afternoon, taking on the Bethel College Threshers. Needing a win to stay in the conference tournament race, a historic day for Hayes Van Breusegen helped lift the Valor to a dominant 6-2 KCAC victory on Saturday.

Evangel got on the board early in Saturday's game, as Miguel Santos gave EU a 1-0 lead on an assist from Gonzalo Brieva at the 3:14 mark. 21 minutes later, Hayes Van Breusegen scored his first goal of the day on a pass from Alim Bangura, breaking the single season and career goals scored record at Evangel, giving the Valor a 2-0 lead. The Thresher drew within a goal of tying the game at the 36:10 mark of the first half, but Silas Grundtner scored Evangel's third goal of the game on a pass from David Gonifas to give EU a 3-1 lead at the halftime break.

In the 55th minute, Grundtner scored his second goal of the afternoon on an assist from Santos, extending the Valor lead to 4-1. Just 11 minutes later, Van Breusegen added his second score of the day on a pass from Caleb Burton, and completed the hat trick just over two minutes later, scoring on a pass from Juyong Kim. Bethel scored a goal in the final three minutes of Saturday's contest, but the damage had been done as EU cruised to a 6-2 win on Saturday.
