ASTON, Pa. – A strong second half lifted Neumann University over the Centenary University men's soccer team by a 6-0 score on Tuesday afternoon in Atlantic East Conference play.

Neumann finally broke through in the 29th minute as Alex Lopez-Luna put a high shot in and it was able to sneak just under the crossbar for the goal.

The two teams continued to battle as the home side took the 1-0 lead at the half.

Neumann scored five times in the second half to secure the 6-0 victory. Sam Clavijo scored a pair of goals while Marlon Trejo had a goal and an assist during that stretch.
