Men's Soccer Knocks Off MIT, 1-0

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — The Endicott men's soccer team knocked off MIT, 1-0, in non-conference action on Tuesday night at Roberts Field.

After a back-and-forth first 25 minutes, Tiago Frazao (Trumbull, Conn.) punched in his fourth goal of the season off of Aidan Sheehan's (Arlington, Mass.) feed on a set corner kick play at the 29 minute mark. 

That was all the Gulls needed in the contest, as the defense controlled the game from that point on, limiting the Engineers to just five shots on net in the contest. The second half featured just nine total shots between the two teams (four Endicott, five MIT).

Reigning Conference of New England (CNE) Rookie of the Week Brady O'Toole (Concord, Mass.) made his fourth start of the season in net and collected another five saves in the outing, as he notched his third shutout (second consecutive).

BEYOND THE BOX SCORE

• After tonight's Endicott win, MIT holds a slim 3-2-1 edge in the all-time series.
• Frazao's goal was the 22nd of his career, which ranks third all-time.
• His goal was also the sixth game-winning goal of his career, which also ranks third all-time.
• The Endicott defense has limited opponents to just one goal in the last four games (outscoring opponents 11-1 in that span).

WHAT'S NEXT

Endicott (5-4-1) hosts Wentworth for a 3 PM contest at Hempstead Stadium on Saturday, October 5. MIT (5-6) travels to Clark on Saturday for a 1 PM kickoff.
