DE PERE - St. Norbert College junior Seth Boldt scored two goals less than two minutes apart to provide the difference in the Green Knights' 2-0 win over Knox College in a crucial Midwest Conference game at Schneider Stadium.

The Green Knights (6-2-2, 1-0-1 MWC) battled the Prairie Fire (6-3-2, 1-1) to a scoreless tussle for the first 63 minutes, until Boldt proved to be in the right location when Brandon DiOrio's shot was saved by Knox goalkeeper Joao Freire but was redirected to Boldt, who finished at 63:23. Moments later, Jonnie Winkler found Boldt who turned a 1-on-2 plus the keeper breakaway into his second goal with his eighth marker of the year at 65:02.

St. Norbert held the run of play for the remaining 25 minutes, outshooting Knox 7-2 for the match. The Green Knights also held a 3-0 corner kick edge.

Ben Holtzen earned his second shutout of the season by making one save for the Green Knights. Freire made four stops for the Prairie Fire.
