MEN'S SOCCER'S SECOND-HALF GOAL FALLS SHORT IN SETBACK TO SAINTS

BUFFALO, NY - The College of Staten Island men's soccer team traveled to Buffalo, NY, on Saturday afternoon for an East Coast Conference (ECC) matchup against D'Youville University. After falling behind 1-0 early in the second half, the Dolphins netted an equalizer to level the score at one. However, a late free-kick opportunity for the Saints became the game winning goal, handing CSI a 2-1 defeat. 

In the second half, Peterson Larose had a clear opportunity to score with a header, but his attempt sailed just wide, keeping the Dolphins off the board. A little while later, Larose took another shot off a setup from Koray Arslan, but the Saints' goalkeeper held his ground to make the save. 

With the Dolphins controlling much of the offensive momentum in the second half, the team continued to press for a golden opportunity. After a shot from Arslan was deflected by the goalkeeper, the Dolphins maintained possession, and a blocked attempt from Peterson Larose led to an assist from Anthony Benvenuto, setting up Matthew Beaton for the game-tying goal to make it 1-1.

Time began to dwindle and the Saints maintained possession when a foul awarded them a free kick 18 yards from goal. They converted the opportunity with a beam into the back left corner, securing a 2-1 victory over the Dolphins.

The College of Staten Island men's soccer team (1-5-3 / 0-3-1 ECC) will jump back into non-conference action next Thursday, Oct. 9, when they travel to Wilmington, Del. to play Goldey-Beacom College at 3:00 PM.
