Muskingum freshman Trent Newby scored two second-half goals to help lead the Muskies past Bethany on Tuesday night in McConagha Stadium, 2-1.

Newby's first tally of the night tied the game in the 51st minute. The strike came on a 1v1 to goal after a long ball from senior Austin Mills. Newby's shot to the far post beat Bethany keeper Callum Appleby. The assist was the first of the season for Mills.

Newby added his second goal in the 62nd minute. The score was setup after junior Brett Hanna penetrated deep into the Bison box and passed the ball to Newby, who blasted it past Appleby. The two-goal outburst elevated Newby to a team-best six goals. The assist was Hanna's team-best fourth of the year.
