Bowdoin Rallies to Earn Key NESCAC Win Over Trinity

BOX SCORE

BRUNSWICK, Maine - The Bowdoin College men's soccer team scored twice in a seven-minute span in the second half, erasing a one-goal deficit to take a 2-1 victory over Trinity on Saturday. The Polar Bears improve to 6-4-0 overall (4-3-0 NESCAC) while the Bantams drop to 9-3-0 (4-3-0 NESCAC).

After a scoreless opening stanza that saw the teams trade good chances only to be stymied by the opposing goaltenders, Trinity broke through to open the second period. An initial shot towards the goal was stopped by Bowdoin's Dan Hicks, but the rebound came loose and was jammed home by Trinity's Peter Marlette to give the visitors a 1-0 lead at 51:50.

The Bantams barely had time to catch their breath before Bowdoin replied just 46 seconds later. Brendan Mooney played a pass to Nick Powell from the right wing, and Powell netted the game-tying goal at 52:36.

Just over seven minutes later, Carl Woock crossed a ball into the box from the left side to Mooney at the top of the box. Mooney's volley tucked into the lower-right corner to give Bowdoin the lead.

Hicks made the advantage hold by making four saves in all. Zac Trudeau was strong in net for Trinity, making seven saves for the Bantams, who were out-shot 16-7 by the Polar Bears.
