Back to Winning Ways

Our boys entered the second day of the Cabrini Tournament a little disgruntled from the loss the day before, but readjusted their focus for Polytech of NYU. We came out with a sense of urgency and it was not long until our Bobcats had factored in the contest. With just under 5 minutes in the game, senior transfer, Chris Mumby put a good cross into the box which was met by Sean Jones, who finished for his second of the young season. After the goal, our aggressive mentality dropped off quite a bit, and the game started to be played more in the midfield. The story of the game, however, was the failed conversions on attacking play by our team. At half the scoreboard read 14-1 in shots in favor of our Bobcats. The start of the second half turned out to be much the same until conversions by Jones and Mike Bistany really put the game away. Bistany's goal came from a corner kick that he converted when he found a rebound in the box and Jones' second of the day was a cool headed finish from Davis' hard work on the flank. At 3-nil the Bobcats were comfortable, and the Fighting Blue Jays of Polytech were really starting to let up. The game finished 3-0 for the Burg, but let's hope these missed chances don't burn us in the future.
