Box Score FARMINGDALE, N.Y.—After the Gryphons succeeded in keeping the Rams off the scoreboard in the first half, Sarah Lawrence College men's soccer was eventually toppled, 6-0, by Farmingdale State College in a Skyline Conference game at Rams Field on Saturday.
On a wet and chilly day, Sarah Lawrence (2-9, 0-5 Skyline) goalkeeper
James Berry (New York, N.Y./Kent) played a key role in preserving the first-half shutout. The junior transfer made his first save just two minutes into the game and stopped five shots in the first half.
Farmingdale (5-8-1, 2-2-1 Skyline) posted 12 shots in the first frame, but defenders
Juan Sucre (Caracas, Venezuela/ASFM (Monterrey, Mexico)) and
Tobias Geisler Mesevage (Ghent, N.Y./Hawthorne Valley Waldorf School) helped to keep most of them off target.
In the second half, two FSC goals in the first 10 minutes spelled disaster for the Gryphons. Berry totaled eight saves in the game, while relieving keeper
Nikos Efstratudakis (London, Ontario/American Community School of Athens) posted a pair of saves.
The Gryphons were held without a shot in the teams' inaugural meeting.
Sarah Lawrence returns to action on Tuesday when the Gryphons host Sage at Phil Rizzuto Park in Elizabeth, N.J.
