AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL RALLIES TO FORCE 2-2 TIE AGAINST MEN'S SOCCER

Springfield, Mass. – Jason Burnusuz scored with 1:50 remaining as American International College rallied to force a 2-2 double-overtime tie against the Le Moyne College men's soccer team on Saturday night in Northeast-10 Conference action at Ronald J. Abdow Field.

In the scoreless first half, the Dolphins registered an 8-6 edge in shots. Le Moyne put five of its eight shots on goal, but AIC netminder Sebastian Tamayo was able to keep the Dolphins off the scoreboard.

The Dolphins got the scoring started just over 11 minutes into the second half. Off a corner kick by redshirt senior midfieder Cal Filtch (Marcellus, N.Y./Marcellus), junior back Ryan Matthews (Dublin, Ireland/Clonkeen College/Dublin Institute of Technology) found the back of the net for the third time this season with a header. The assist gave Filtch 11 for the season, which is tied for second on the program's single-season list. Filtch moves up to a tie for 17th on the single-season points chart with 25.

The teams then traded goals in a span of eight seconds. Off a pass from the left side of the penalty box by junior midfielder Callum Donnelly (Edinburgh, Scotland/James Gillespies/Webber International), junior midfielder Rossel Cacho (Corozal La Ceiba, Honduras / Brighton (Mass.)/Bunker Hill C.C.) slotted the ball into the net for his third goal of the year with 79:18 elapsed in the contest.

Off the ensuing restart, Kevin Milla collected a loose ball about 30 yards out and then launched a shot underneath the crossbar for his first goal of the campaign.

The Yellow Jackets evened the score at two apiece with just under two minutes left in the game as Burnusuz netted his second goal of the season.

The Dolphins recorded a 7-1 advantage in shots in the first overtime period, but Tamayo tallied saves on both shots put on target.

Each team posted three shots in the second overtime period, but could not net the game-winner.

Sophomore goalkeeper Ben Beaury (Cohoes, N.Y./LaSalle Institute) registered four saves, including two in the second overtime period, in recording his first career tie between the pipes. Tamayo finished the contest with 12 saves to remain undefeated at home over his last eight contests (3-0-5). The Dolphins posted a 27-16 advantage in shots, including 10-4 in the overtime sessions, while taking five of the game's six corner kicks.

Le Moyne (10-4-1, 6-4-1 NE-10), which is winless in its last four games against the Yellow Jackets (0-3-1), returns home to face Franklin Pierce University on Tuesday at 3:00 p.m.
