No. 5 Men's Soccer Plays Saint Anselm to 1-1 Draw

BOX SCORE

MANCHESTER, N.H. - Fifth-ranked Southern New Hampshire University and Saint Anselm College battled to a 1-1 double-overtime draw in Northeast-10 men's soccer Wednesday night at Larkin Field.  The Penmen, who extended their unbeaten streak to 12 games (10-0-2), but saw their win streak snapped at six, are now 11-1-2 and 8-0-2 in the NE-10, while the Hawks, who are 4-1-2 over their last seven games, now stand 4-7-3 overall and 4-4-2 in the league.

SNHU staked itself to a 1-0 lead in the 17th minute.  Kevin Woods (Alyth, Scotland) delivered a left-to-right crossing pass into the box that Adrian Schippers (Ashby, Mass.) headed home for his 10th goal of the season.  Schippers has now scored a goal in five straight games.

Saint Anselm would come up with the equalizer eight minutes into the second half.  On a restart, Keesen Howe delivered a long free kick into the box that Paul Kilday collected and one-timed past SNHU keeper Sean Lambert (Rehoboth, Mass.).

SNHU's best chance to retake the lead came with just under three minutes left in regulation.  Mark Cotton (Londonderry, N.H.) put two shots on goal, but both were stopped by Saint Anselm goalie Eric Moriarty.  Michael Adam (Ludlow, Mass.) collected the rebound of the second shot, but his effort was also turned aside by Moriarty.

Lambert made one shot in the contest, while Moriarty turned aside nine shots for the Hawks.  Southern New Hampshire generated a 23-8 shot advantage on the evening, including a 10-2 advantage in shots on goal.

SNHU plays its final Northeast-10 road game of the season Saturday when it travels to The College of Saint Rose for a 1:00 contest.
