Men's Soccer Falls on Senior Day

The Eastern University men's soccer team entered this afternoon's senior day contest against FDU-Florham knowing that it would be the last game of the year. The Eagles held the Devils to just three shots, but the visitors made them count as they earned a 3-0 win.

While the Eagles had more of the play, it could not be said that either team dominated in a game that lacked conviction from either side. The visitors got on the board with a penalty kick goa from Manny Almeida in the  35th minute. Eastern held a 5-1 advantage in shots through the opening 45 minutes, but they were not able to beat either of DU's first-half goalkeepers.

The second half started very poorly for the host Eagles. Just seconds into the half Almeida found Joshua Corpuz to double the visitor's advantage. Corpuz put away his second of the game with under two minutes to play on a ball served from the right flank on one of the Devil's many restarts.

The Eagles finish out of the post-season for the first time in twelve years.
