NORTHFIELD, Vt. - Jamal Howard notched the
game's lone goal midway through the first half, and Gerald O'Connor
made it stand up as Albertus Magnus defeated Norwich, 1-0, in a
Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) men's soccer match
Saturday afternoon at Howard Field.
The Falcons improve to 5-4-1 (2-2-0 GNAC), while the Cadets drop
to 4-4-2 (2-1-1 GNAC).
Howard's goal came at the 14:49 mark of the first half, when
Steven Zapata crossed a ball from the right corner that Howard shot
under the crossbar off a bounce. The tally proved the game-winning
goal as neither team could manage to score after that.
The Cadets held a slight edge in shots (16-14) and corner kicks
(7-5).
NU senior GK Charles Maxwell finished the game with six saves,
while O'Connor made five stops for AMC.
The Cadets wrap up their five-game homestand on Tuesday, Oct. 6,
when they host in-state rival Lyndon State College at Howard Field.
Kickoff for the non-conference match is set for 3:30 p.m.
