WORCESTER, Mass. – The Pioneers fell to the Crusaders on a late goal Friday night resulting in a 1-0 loss.
Records:
Sacred Heart: 1-2
Holy Cross: 1-1-1
Top Performers:
David Garcia Gallego: 4 shots, 1 shot on goal
Javier Lopez Cayuela: 3 shots, 1 shot on goal
Of Note:
After a slow start to the match, both the Pioneers and Crusaders saw chances in the box but were unable to capitalize on them. The Pioneers had a shot that saw the back of the net with about 10 seconds remaining in the first half but was waived by the officials due to an offside call.
The second half of play showed a lot of physicality from both teams. With seven minutes remaining in the match, Jake Williams scored off the assist of Evan Jones and Brock Frazier.
The teams totaled 29 fouls: 13 on the Pioneers and 16 on the Crusaders. The match also resulted in six yellow cards, three for each team.
The Pioneers out-shot the Crusaders 9-5.
