No. 17 Bethel roars
past Lyon, 5-0

The nationally-ranked Bethel Wildcats took advantage of two yellow cards and a pair of reds to top the Lyon College Scots, 5-0, in a TranSouth Conference soccer match Tuesday at Lyon College Soccer Field.

Bethel, ranked No. 17 in the NAIA national Division I rankings, led by a slim 1-0 in the 37^th minute, when a disputed Scots foul touched off a pair of yellow cards and two more red cards from Lyon. The red cards cost the home team Nick Jones and head coach Jeremy Bishop for the rest of the game and the Wildcats capitalized, scoring on a Sean Fraser penalty kick as a result of the foul, and three more unanswered goals from Bethel in the balance of the game.

Bethel improves to 12-2-1 and 7-1 in the TranSouth. Lyon sinks to 6-8-1 and 3-5.
