SENIORS LEAD DOLPHINS TO 3-0 VICTORY OVER ST. ANSELM

SYRACUSE, NY – Senior Brandon Morse (Lima, Ohio/Shawnee) converted on two second half penalty kicks and Matt Pecheone (New Hartford, N.Y./New Hartford) added an insurance goal as the Dolphins defeated St. Anselm 3-0. The Dolphins improved their mark to 11-3-2 on the year, 8-3-1 in the NE-10. The Hawks drop to 6-8-1, 4-5-1 in conference play.

The Dolphins got on the board in the second period following an intentional handball by St. Anselm’s Dave Hugel just outside the goal on a header from Morse. The penalty gave the senior midfielder a penalty kick which he buried in the back of the net.

Le Moyne would add another goal four minutes later as freshman Jessie Carr (Skaneateles, N.Y./Skaneateles) drew a penalty inside the goalie box for a penalty kick. Morse stepped up and converted on his second penalty kick of the day to push the Dolphin lead to 2-0.

Matt Pecheone added Le Moyne’s third and final goal of the game on an assist from Carr. Pecheone took the ball down the left side of the field and scored from 16 yards out, beating the goalie to the lower-right corner.

Goalie Steve White (Cortland, N.Y./Cortland) recorded four saves on the day as he registered his sixth shutout of the season.

The game also marked the final home game for four seniors, Mike Desiderio (Cicero, N.Y./ Bishop Grimes), Bennett Grubbs (Wildwood, Mo./Lafayette), Morse and Pecheone.

The Dolphins return to action on Tuesday, October 21st as they travel to St. Rose to wrap up their NE-10 Conference schedule.
