Robertiello's two goals take down Eagles
Susquehanna (6-9-1, 2-3-0 Landmark Conference) opened the scoring in the 10th minute with Robertiello scoring a goal off of a pass from sophomore midfielder Austin Gordon. Juniata answered with a goal in the 54th minute off of a loose ball in the penalty box. The Eagles, however, were later red-carded and forced to play the remainder of the game a man down. Juniata came close to scoring again in the 83rd minute, but Horan made a diving save, his only one in the game, to keep the score tied. Robertiello then scored his game-winning goal just one minute, 26 seconds later off of a centering pass from freshman midfielder John Arnold. Arnold got the assist and his first collegiate point. Susquehanna held the edge in shots, constantly peppering the Juniata net throughout the game and outshooting the Eagles 15-5, and corner kicks, 13-2. Susquehanna 1, USMMA 2 Susquehanna lost a close game against Merchant Marine in overtime, 2-1, in a Landmark Conference game at the Sassafras Fields Complex on Oct. 17. The Mariners scored the first goal of the game in the 31st minute, but the Crusaders tied the game at one after junior midfielder Dan Niesen headed in a free kick from junior midfielder Brandon Eisenhart in the 58th minute. The Mariners scored with just two minutes, 44 seconds left in overtime to win the game. Susquehanna junior goalkeeper B.J. Merriam made three saves on the day. "I am hoping the boys can bounce back from the loss Saturday versus a very tough and physical Merchant Marine team this past Saturday," Head Coach Jim Findlay said. Susquehanna 2, Franklin & Marshall 1 Susquehanna beat visiting Franklin & Marshall, 2-1, off of a game-winning goal from senior co-captain midfielder Ralph Larsen in a non-conference game on Oct. 14. Larsen scored his first goal of the season in the 68th minute after a goal from junior forward Shane Atha in the first half. The Diplomats scored their only goal of the game in the 60th minute, but were only able to get off one more shot the rest of the game. The Crusader defense swallowed up any would-be opportunity that developed from that point on. Horan made three saves for his third win of the season. Susquehanna 4, Goucher 1 Findlay earned his 100th career victory as head coach of the men's soccer team in Susquehanna's win over Goucher, 4-1, in a Landmark game at Beldon Field on Oct. 10. "It felt great to reach that milestone," Findlay said. "I have been very fortunate to have been surrounded with many great assistant coaches and players over the years; this 100th win would not be possible without them." Eisenhart scored his second career goal in the 14th minute. Sophomore defender/forward Joey Stellato recorded a hat trick with goals in the 15th, 35th and 58th minutes. Horan made three saves. "I think the team's confidence grew with the tie over nationally-ranked Dickinson. Not only did the team create many offensive chances but we were able to finish them as well," Findlay said. The teams ended up deadlocked with 10 shots each, while the Crusaders barely held the edge with nine corner kicks to the Gophers' seven. The glaring difference in the game was that the Orange and Maroon made the most of their scoring chances. The team's next game will be tomorrow against Moravian in a Landmark Conference game at 3:30 p.m. at the Sassafras Fields Complex. The game is also Senior Day. |
