Three Second Half Goals Propel Men’s Soccer to Shutout Victory over Berkeley (NJ)


HACKETTSTOWN, N.J.  (Sept. 28, 2016) - Powered by three second half goals, the Centenary University men's soccer team recorded a 3-0 decision over Berkeley College on Wednesday afternoon.  Junior Richy Castro (Landing, N.J. / Roxbury) scored the game-winner and took six shots for the Cyclones who improve to 4-4 overall. Calvin Carbajal and Mathew Nato each tallied two shots apiece for the Knights who fall to 6-4 overall.

After a scoreless and low shooting first half, the Cyclones exploded for 21 shots in the second stanza.  Centenary broke through in the 54th minute, as junior Daniel Lamanna (Roxbury, N.J. / Roxbury) floated a ball into Castro for the score.

The Cyclones increased their lead to 2-0 in the 62nd minute, as senior Kevin Brix (Monroe Township, N.J. / Monroe Township) scored off a corner kick taken by junior Justin White (Minehill, N.J. / Dover). White and Lamanna would have a hand in the final goal of the afternoon, as both juniors assisted on sophomore Josh Weiss (Hackettstown, N.J. / Hackettstown) goal in the 74th minute.

Centenary edged Berkeley on shots (24-11), shots on goal (11-8) and corner kicks (8-2). White took five shots, while Brix attempted four and senior Luis Marin (Union City, N.J. / Union Hill) tallied three for the Cyclones. Sophomore Devon Warne (Belvidere, N.J. / Belvidere) improves to 4-4 in goal with eight saves in 90 minutes of work.

The game proved to be very physical at times, as there were 10 cards issued, including two red card ejections for Berkeley.

Head Coach Keith O'Connor and the Cyclones will return to action in Radnor, Pa. on Saturday, Oct. 1, against the Cavaliers of Cabrini University at 2:30 p.m.
