Wizards Shut Down San Jose


Last Update: 4/05/2009 4:46 pm
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Aaron Hohlbein scored his first career goal, and the Kansas City Wizards beat the San Jose Earthquakes 2-0 on Sunday for their first win of the season.

Claudio Lopez also scored for Kansas City (1-2), which had given up five goals in its first two games. The Wizards outshot San Jose 12-3 and didn't force a save by Kansas City's Kevin Hartman until the 81st minute.

San Jose dropped to 1-2 on the season.

Hohlbein's goal in the 28th minute came after two deflections in the penalty area. Jimmy Conrad recovered the first loose ball and shot from 5 yards, and San Jose keeper Joe Cannon was only able to deflect the ball with his chest. It went straight to Hohlbein, who drove it into the net from point-blank range.

Lopez made it 2-0 in the 78th minute. He took a long pass from Herculez Gomez on the left side, dribbled into the penalty area and fired a shot past Cannon from 15 yards.
