Men's Soccer Gets Back in Win Column, Defeating Medgar Evers 3-1

YONKERS, N.Y. – Pacqui Pascual scored twice for the Sarah Lawrence College men's soccer team, leading the charge for the Gryphons in their 3-1 victory over the Medgar Evers College Cougars on Monday night.

TALKING POINTS
  • For Pascual, the goals marked his first two of the season. The first one was set up by a cross from Dylan Bernard.
  • Yusef Maftoon found the back of the net for the first time in his collegiate career.
  • Kian Silva notched his second win of the season between the pipes, making some key stops to keep the Gryphons ahead.
  • The Gryphons outshot the Cougars 18-10.
  • SLC controlled possession 65/35.
FIRST HALF
The teams were evenly matched for the first 45 minutes, resulting in a scoreless draw at the break. Silva saved three shots. The Gryphons went into the intermission with a one-shot advantage.

SECOND HALF
The game opened up for both teams in the second half. At the 52:38 mark, Dylan Bernard played a wonderful ball into the box, finding the head of Pascual. The senior guided the ball over the outstretched arms of the Cougars' keeper, giving the Gryphons the 1-0 edge.

A Medgar Evers PK knotted the score at the 68-minute mark.

Sarah Lawrence responded quickly, retaking the lead six minutes later when Pacqui capitalized on a penalty. The icing on the cake was the Maftoon goal in the final minute of play. The first-year from Chantilly, Va. let one rip with his right foot, beating the Medgar Evers goalie on his right side.
