Men's Soccer Draws With Blue Jays 1-1

WEST HARTFORD, CT - On Saturday, October 12th the Anna Maria College men's soccer team traveled to West Hartford, CT to take on the University of Saint Joseph Blue Jays for a Great Northeast Athletic Conference matchup. The AMCATS tied the game 1-1.

After a nearly deadlocked first half, the AMCATS were the first to strike with a goal from Rubelsi Moran with under a minute left to play in the half. Morans goal would give the AMCATS a 1-0 lead going into halftime. After holding onto the lead for almost 33 minutes, the AMCATS would end up allowing the game tying goal off a shot from Mario Milardo. Tied up at one goal a piece, both teams would fight hard for a chance to take over the lead, however neither team would find the back of the net before the clock hit zero resulting in the AMCATS first tie of the season.
