Men's Soccer Drops 2-1 Final vs. Le Moyne

Box Score

Worcester, Mass. (October 22) -- The Assumption College men's soccer team dropped a 2-1 final to the visiting Le Moyne Dolphins on a rainy Wednesday night at the Assumption College Multi-Sport Stadium. Junior Glenn LiBassi (North Scituate, R.I. / LaSalle Academy) scored the lone goal for the Hounds, tallying the first of his career.

With the loss, the Hounds fall to 2-9-2 on the season (2-6-2 NE-10) while the Dolphins improve to 10-4 overall (6-4 NE-10).

Le Moyne got out on the board early just over 10 minutes into into the first period when a Dolphin corner kick made its way into the box. The Hound defense attempted to head the ball out, but instead deflected it into the goal to give Le Moyne a 1-0 lead.

The Dolphins notched their second goal of the game in the 32nd minute when Le Moyne's Zachary MacNabb bounced a shot off the right post. Le Moyne's Anthony Scaravillo was there to get the rebound and sent the shot into the left corner to put the Hounds down by two.

In the second half, Assumption boosted its offense, posting nine shots compared to just two in the first period. LiBassi reduced the deficit to one in the 70th minute after junior Nemanja Kaurin (South Portland, Maine / South Portland) sent a cross to the right corner of the box. LiBassi blasted the ball into the bottom left corner of the net for the final 2-1 score.

The Dolphins outshot the Hounds 20-11 on the day. Assumption notched seven shots on goal compared to nine for Le Moyne. Le Moyne also held the advantage in corner kicks 9-6.

Junior Dana King (Windham, Maine / Windham) racked up seven saves in his 90 minutes between the posts compared to six for Dolphin keeper Ben Beaury.

The Hounds are set to return to action this Saturday when they host Stonehill for senior day at the Multi-Sport Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m.
