RAMS EDGE SAINTS

Oct. 4, 2007

The Men's Soccer Team fell to Suffolk University on Tuesday night, 2-1, in overtime. Suffolk took an early lead at the 12-minute mark, but Emmanuel tied it up just seconds before halftime. Senior forward Chris Clark (Cohasset, MA) sent a free kick into the box, which was tipped by Andrew Clark (Cohasset, MA) before senior defenseman Mark Iannucci (Kingston, MA) knocked it in. The teams went into halftime tied at 1-1. Both teams played the entire second half scoreless. The Saints out-shot the Rams, 12-8, throughout the game, but it was Suffolk that notched the game-winner after 5:30 of overtime play. Freshman goalkeeper Carlos Perez (Boca Raton, FL) played the full game in net for the Saints, making 6 saves in the contest. With this loss, Emmanuel fell to 3-7 on the season and 1-4 in the GNAC. The Saints will travel to Nashua, NH on Saturday (10/6) to square off against the Raiders of Rivier College. The game is scheduled to kick off at 12:00 pm.
