Falcons Play Mount Saint Mary's (NY) to Scoreless Tie

 

Newburgh, NY - In the home opener for the Mount Saint Mary College Men's Soccer team, the Blue Knights played Albertus Magnus College to a scoreless tie.  The record for both teams now stands at 1-0-1.  The Blue Knights outshot the Falcons by a margin of 16-10 but couldn't find the back of the net for the entire afternoon.  Perhaps the best chance for the Mount came in the final minute of regulation when freshman Drew Altieri (Voorheesville, N.Y.) clanged the crossbar from the top of the eighteen.  Senior goalkeeper Paul Aries (Nashua, N.H.) made several key stops for the Blue Knights and collected his first shutout of the season.  Senior, Gerald O'Connor (Hamden, CT) matched the effort of Aries at the other end, making eight saves to earn his second shutout in as many games.  The Falcons have yet to allow a goal on the young season and travel to Nichols College on Monday with the game scheduled for a 7:00 PM kick-off.
