WEST HAVEN, Conn. - The College of Saint Rose struck twice in the opening 22 minutes to upend host Northeast-10 Conference rival New Haven 2-1 this afternoon.
"This was a good win on the road against an organized and well coached New Haven team. I thought we had some very good spells of possession and did enough to walk away with three points," said head coach
John Ciano.
Sophomore midfielder
Filippo Bellú; finished in the opening 11 minutes and freshman forward
Hilmar Halldorsson struck with his team-leading fourth strike of the year off a feed from senior midfielder
Niv Fogel at the 21:59 mark for what proved to be the game-winner.
Senior midfielder Kledis Capollari brought the Chargers (2-5/0-4 NE10) to within one with six minutes remaining, but they could not manufacture a shot-on-goal the rest of the way.
Looking ahead, both sides have NE10 matches Saturday. The Golden Knights host Southern New Hampshire at 4:00 pm, while New Haven has an 11:00 am meeting at Stonehill in Easton, Mass.
Notes: Saint Rose is ranked #8 in this week's United Soccer Coaches Poll…Junior midfielder
