Patrick Mullins, a Junior at the University of Maryland and Alumnus with the Chicago Fire Program, scored the lone goal to beat Virginia last Friday night raising Maryland University Men’s Soccer team record to 10 wins, 0 losses and 1 tie. The Jesuit High Product scored the lone goal in the Terps victory and currently ranks as a team leader with six goals and sox assists.

Maryland entered last Friday’s contest ranked Number 1 and leading the nation with a 3.33 goals per game average. Its defense shut out opponents in three of their last four victories. Twenty-six minutes into the game Mullins took a pass at mid-field, darted past a defender and beat the Virginia goal keeper one on one from thirteen yards out for the game winner. Currently, Mullins is leading the ACC in points per game at a rate of 1.8 per outing.

Patrick was a member of the 92’ Chicago Fire which won six state titles and broke bracket in two of their final three years at the USYS Region III Tournament. Mullins was the ACC Freshman of the year and was Second Team All Conference last fall. He will lead the Terrapins in their quest for another ACC title and the National Championship which will be held in Birmingham, Alabama later this fall.
