MORGANTOWN, W.Va. Dan Stratford waited 13 months to lead his alma mater onto the soccer field but needed just four minutes to see his Mountaineers score their first goal of the season. West Virginia defeated Charlotte, 3-0 Friday night in Stratford’s first match as head coach.
“I feel like it was just what the guys needed after such a long break,” Stratford said. “I think we all forgot what the feeling was like to play a tough road game and get a really good win, and that feeling in the locker room afterwards. It definitely made for an easy ride home, for sure. That gave us a lot of confidence but also a good platform to build on.”
