SALEM, Va. -- Roanoke used two late second half goals to hand Washington and Lee its first loss of the season, 2-1, in ODAC men's soccer action on Wednesday afternoon.

Regi Francois scored on a shot that was deflected by a Washington and Lee defender and snuck past sophomore goalkeeper Tim Foley (Darnestown, Md./Georgetown Prep) at the 84:34 mark. Ryan Pflugrad then scored 12 minutes later to give the Roanoke (10-0, 5-0 ODAC) a 2-0 lead.

Washington and Lee (7-1, 4-1 ODAC) fought back at the 86:05 mark as junior forward Andrew Grimes (Lexington, Ky./Henry Clay) deflected home a cross from freshman midfielder Philip Miller (Kingwood, Texas/Kingwood) to close the gap to 2-1. The Generals, however, could not beat goalkeeper Chris Ebeling in the closing minutes.

W&L will be back in action on Saturday afternoon as the Generals will host Guilford in Lexington. Game time is set for 1:00 pm.
