Pios Blanked By RIT On The Road

Rochester, NY- The Alfred State Men's Soccer Team lost their first game of the season on the road at RIT 2-0. The Pioneers fall to 3-1-3.
 
Alexander Preston made 6 saves between the sticks in the loss.
 
The Tigers put the pressure on the Pios to open the contest. RIT got on the board first in the 19th minute from a corner kick to give them the 1-0 advantage. Alfred State was able to get 4 corner kicks and 9 free kick opportunities in the opening half but they were unable to capitalize as the Tigers took a 1-0 lead into the halftime break.
 
In the second half the Pioneers brought some firepower out of the break, firing off 8 shots to RIT's 7. Alexander Preston was able to keep the Pios in the game with a few spectacular saves. Although, in the 83rd minute, the Tigers found the dagger from a wildly deflected shot that landed in the back of the net giving the home team a 2-0 lead. Alfred State wasn't able to draw a goal back despite getting 3 corners and 9 free kicks in the second half as the match ended in a 2-0 loss. 
 
The Pioneers look to take on Penn College at home on Tuesday, September 23rd for a 5pm kickoff.
