YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. | Dani Fischer's penalty kick 79 seconds into the second half propelled the No. 3-ranked Young Harris College  past Lee University 2-1 in a non-conference men's soccer match Saturday (Sept. 21) evening at the YHC Soccer and Lacrosse Field.

Young Harris had taken a 1-0 lead in the 17th minute. Off a Fischer corner kick from the right side, Fischer found Val Trouiller in the box and Trouiller's header deflected off the right post to Ali Koller, who knocked the ball in for his thrid brace of the year. It was also the first goal surrendered by the Flames this season in five matches.

Lee tied the match at 1 with just under four minutes remaining as Tanner Carter followed his own missed shot for his first goal of 2019.
