Ben Johnson and Bobby Charlton tallied goals and senior Jared Belin posted another shutout as Class 4A No. 4 Linn-Mar rebounded from a loss to top-ranked Iowa City West by downing Xavier, 2-0, Thursday at Heco Field.

Daniel Luzindya set up Johnson on the Lions' first goal in the 26th minute of the first half.

With Xavier pushing for the tying goal in the final minute, Kevin Simon hit Darrin Eby with a long pass. Eby dropped  the ball off to Charlton, who scored the clinching goal.

The shutout was Belin's ninth this season, one shy of the school record set by Clark Anderson in 2004 Linn-Mar moves to 11-2 with the win. The loss drops Xavier, ranked No. 4 in Class 2A, to 6-6.
