KERRVILLE, Texas -- Luis Green tied the Texas Lutheran Men's Soccer record for goals scored in a match with four goals Saturday in a 5-1 conference road win over Schreiner University.
The win Saturday pushed the Bulldogs' overall record to 3-2 and their Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference mark to 3-2. Schreiner dropped to 0-5 overall and to 0-5 in the SCAC.
Green, a junior forward from Monterrey, Mexico (Smithson Valley HS (Texas)), joined former Bulldogs Sean Morris, Doug Mowen, and Roger Gomez in TLU's four-goal club.
Gomez, TLU's all-time leading goal scorer (62 goals), did the feat twice. Gomez scored four goals in each of the two 1988 matches against Schreiner.
Mowen scored four against Schreiner in a 1990 meeting, and Morris scored four in a 1997 match against Concordia-Austin (now Concordia Texas).
Green's four goals Saturday against the Mountaineers came on six shots. A two-time All-American and two-time SCAC Offensive Player of the Year, Green scored the match's first goal in the 16th minute with an assist from Nicolas Medina.

Green recorded three goals in the second half. His first second-half goal came in the 48th minute. The goal was unassisted.
The third and fourth goals for Green were registered in the 52nd and 86th minutes. Medina assisted on the third goal and the fourth goal.
Medina's three assists moved him into a tie for third on the TLU single-match list for assists in a game. (Marcus Pais holds the single-match record with five against Concordia-Austin in 2005.)
TLU's other goal of the match was scored by Jorge Ugaz in the 76th minute. The goal was unassisted.
The Bulldogs out-shot Schreiner 13-7 and had a 7-0 edge in corner kicks.
TLU continues SCAC action next Saturday with a 4 p.m. road match at Trinity University. Trinity is not allowing visiting team fans to attend its home athletics events.
