Dalton State Captain Ibrahima Sissoko scored three goals and had an assist in the fourth Roadrunner goal
The Dalton State soccer Roadrunners opened up their initial season Thursday night with a 4-0 win over Florida College at Qualls Field on the FC campus.
“The Falcons were a tough team that challenged us,” said Coach Kerem Daser. “Team Captain Ibrahima Sissoko was the difference. He was involved in every goal.”
Sissoko scored a hat trick (three goals) and contributed an assist on the fourth Dalton State score, a header by Jordan Man. “I thought Man and Jose Villalobos were outstanding in the middle of the pitch,” added Daser. “It is nice to pull off our first win but it is a long season and we need to take one game at a time.”
The Roadrunners travel to Hialiah to battle Florida National University at 3:00 p.m. The home opener will be Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. against Milligan College. Dalton State home games are at Lakeshore Park.
