St. Vincent

We traveled to St. Vincent, leaving 5 regular players at home due to illness and injury and came away with 1-1 draw. Freshman Abiye Jack made his first start in goal for us and was very solid. This was our fourth straight road game and we are improving after each game. We looked very good attacking the Bearcats and had many more scoring opportunities then we had the previous two matches. The new formation implemented in the Behrend game was really allowing our players to get forward and be more dangerous. It was freshman Dillon Muise who broke the deadlock with just 7 minutes left in regulation. St. Vincent did not give up and earned a free kick just outside the penalty area with 5 minutes remaining. They would finish the service with a header off the free kick and force overtime. Overtime provided us with opportunities to win the game even in the final seconds. Danny Hutchins had a great touch on a long ball to set himself up in front of goal with just seconds remaining only to see the ball skip just outside the far post. We are very proud of the way some of our younger guys stepped up in the absence of so many veterans. Its good to know that we are deep enough on the bench to compete for wins on the road.
