RIVERDAWGS LOSE EXHIBITION

Brian Clarke scored off a Jeremy Salenson assist as FC Raleigh (N.C.) United defeated the Roanoke RiverDawgs 1-0 in an exhibition soccer match at Cave Spring Junior High Shcool.

Clarke scored at the 79:34 mark of the match. Former Roanoke College standout Aaron Ewert palyed in goal for the RiverDawgs during the first half. The team welcomed Dante Washington, a former All-American and 1992 Olympian. Washington, who is recovering from a leg injury played about 15 minutes in the second half.
