Late free kick gives Hawks a 2-1 win over Jewell

Jacopo Belardo scored on a direct kick in the 86th minute to give Rockhurst a 2-1 victory over William Jewell Friday night at Bourke Field.

Belardo found the upper left corner of the net from 24 yards out with 4:06 left in regulation. The freshman midfielder leads the Hawks with four goals.

The game-winning goal was set up when the Cardinals were given a red card when RU's Jacob Weaver was fouled from behind on a breakaway.

Matthew Carey gave the Hawks a 1-0 lead with 24 seconds left in the first half. Carey scored his first career goal from six yards out off a pass from David Ray-Campoy. Jewell tied the score in the 65th minute off a direct kick.

Rockhurst finished with 14 shots and seven shots on goal. Weaver led the Hawks with two shots on goal. Belardo, Tomasso Tirabassi and Alessandro Macchioni each had two shots.

Senior goalkeeper Fabio D'Errico posted three saves, two in the first half and one in the second half.

Rockhurst (5-11-1, 4-8-1 GLVC) close out the season at home against Truman State on Sunday.
