BROOKLYN, N.Y. (Oct. 16, 2011) – The Saint Francis University men's soccer team evened its Northeast Conference record at 3-3 by edging St. Francis (N.Y.) 1-0 Sunday afternoon.

“This is a great win and a great weekend for our team,” head coach Michael Casper said. “To get another shutout over a quality team is huge. We showed today that when we play for 90 minutes we will be a tough team to play against. The guys showed tremendous character and I am proud of them. We know we still have a lot of work to do and an important week of preparation as we get ready for next weekend.”

The lone goal of the match came in the 31^st minute of the first half when junior Wayne Tiller (Magnolia, Del./Caesar Rodney) put up a shot from 23 yards away on the right side of the field to give the Flash (7-6-1, 3-3) all they would need. Freshman Pablo Medina (Monterrey, Mexico/IMG Academies) recorded an assist on Tiller's third goal of the season.

Despite being outshot 10-5 and not registering any corner kicks to the Terriers (8-3-1, 3-1) seven, the Flash were able to keep SFC off the scoreboard. Senior Darius Motazed (North Vancouver, Canada/Sentinel Secondary) made six saves to pick up his sixth shutout win of the season.
