Co-captain and 2009 CIS all-Canadian Yannis Gianniotis scored two goals as the No. 4 Varsity Blues men’s soccer team kicked off their 2010 regular-season campaign and went undefeated on the road this weekend.

 

Despite less than ideal playing conditions, the fifth-year defender battled through the weather and came through in a clutch, scoring Toronto’s lone goal to even the score in the final minutes of the game versus the Nipissing Lakers on Saturday. 

 

On Sunday afternoon, Gianniotis added an insurance marker on a penalty kick in a 2-0 victory over Laurentian. The Master’s of teaching student faked out Voyaguers goalkeeper Matt George and smoothly sent the ball into the right side of the net.
