BUFFALO, N.Y. – The Sacred Heart University men's soccer team defeated Canisius College on the road Saturday afternoon, 2-1. Brady Poor and Matthias Dick secured goals for the Pios.
Records:
Sacred Heart: 7-3-1 (2-1-1 MAAC)

Top Performers:
Brady Poor: 1 goal, 2 shots
Matthias Dick: 1 goal

Of Note:
The Golden Griffins saw many back-to-back opportunities early in the first as they struck first in the 15th minute as Glodie Mata headed the ball in past keeper Andrew Hammersley.
Shortly after, first year Brady Poor answered for the Pioneers heading in Aidan Borra's deflected shot in the 20th minute.
Keeping SHU on its toes, Canisius drew a foul in the box resulting in a penalty kick but Hammersley was there to make the stop for the Pioneers laying out on the ground.
Shortly after in the 73rd minute, Alejo Woelper drew a foul in the top of the box resulting in a penalty kick, this time for the Pios. Junior Matthias Dick took the penalty and placed the ball nicely in the top left corner of the net to put the SHU on top.
After coming of a slower start in the first half, the Pioneers dominated with 18-to-10 shots with an even 7-to-7 shots on goal.
Hammersley had a fantastic day securing a season high of six saves between the pipes for the Pios.
Up Next:
The Pios return home for a mid-week matchup against Saint Peter's Wednesday, October 23, at 6:00 p.m.
