Seth Scarano (Valatie, N.Y./Ichabod Crane) each tallied three points to lead the Le Moyne College men's soccer team to a 4-0 victory over Daemen College in non-conference action on Monday afternoon at Ted Grant Field.
Scarano and Faryar hooked up for the game's first goal just under six minutes into the contest. After collecting the ball on the left side of the penalty box, Faryar flicked a pass into the middle of the box to Scarano, who slipped a shot into the back of the net from 14 yards out for his first goal of the season.
Faryar doubled Le Moyne's lead at the 22:24 mark as he one-timed a loose ball into the lower left corner of the net from 15 yards out.
Neither team was able to put a shot on goal over the final 22 minutes of the half as the Dolphins took a 2-0 lead into the intermission.
Freshman midfielder
Pablo Fernandez (Aviles, Asturias/Real Oviedo) pushed Le Moyne lead to 3-0 at the 50:40 by firing an 18-yard shot inside the near right post after carrying the ball down the right side and then dribbling the ball towards the center of the field.
The Dolphins completed the game's scoring at the 58:47 mark. Off a corner kick from the left side by Scarano, senior back
Ryan Matthews (Dublin, Ireland/Clonkeen College/Dublin Institute of Technology) headed the ball inside the right post from two yards out for his fourth goal as a Dolphin.
Daemen registered five of the final seven shots in the game, but could not get on the scoreboard for the fifth straight game against the Dolphins.
Junior goalkeeper
Ben Beaury (Cohoes, N.Y./LaSalle Institute) saved the only shot he faced in 57:14 between the pipes to earn his 25th career victory. Justin Figler registered three saves in the setback for the Wildcats. Le Moyne recorded a 17-9 advantage in shots, including a 10-1 margin in the first half, while registering 11 of the game's 13 corner kicks.
