Quincy, Ill. - Lewis University senior forward Cristhian Ramirez (Wheeling, Ill./Wheeling) scored his second-straight game-winner, as his first half goal was all the Flyers needed for the 1-0 Great Lakes Valley Conference victory over Quincy at Legends Stadium on Sunday (Sept. 22) afternoon.

Ramirez, who scored in double overtime against Truman State on Friday night, took a pass from George Thomson (Kilmarnock, Scotland/Reid Kerr College) and found the back of the net at the 27:05 mark of the first half.

With the win, Lewis (4-0-2, 3-0-1 GLVC) not only remains undefeated, but avenges their worst loss of the season in 2012. Quincy falls to 4-3 on the campaign and 3-1 in conference action. The Flyers have now won seven-straight GLVC regular-season matches on the road.

"It was a good weekend on the road," Lewis head men's soccer coach Evan Fiffles said. "Quincy is a very good team and we needed everyone to show up today and they did."

Lewis goalkeeper Alec Pickett (Mokena, Ill./Providence ) made two saves in goal to earn his third shutout of the season. His counterpart, Drew Duncan, turned away four Lewis shots on the afternoon.

Lewis outshot Quincy, 12-9, and had five shots on goal to the Hawks' two.

Lewis returns to action on Friday (Sept. 27), as they welcome Maryville to Lewis Stadium for a 7:30 PM kickoff.
