Manchester, N.H. (September, 28) – On a wet and soggy Melucci field, the Saint Anselm Hawks men's soccer team played non-conference opponent C.W. Post to a 1-0 loss this afternoon. The Hawks fall to 1-6-1 overall (Northeast-10, 1-3-1) with the loss, while the C.W. Post Pioneers improve to 3-4-1 overall (ECC, 1-1).

The first half was scoreless the entire way through, as Eric Moriarty (Center Harbor, N.H.) made six saves for the Hawks, and Marco Jorgensen (Copenhagen, Denmark) made five saves for the Pioneers. Keesen Howe (Norwich, Conn.) and Justin Labonte (Pembroke, Mass.) each put two shots on goal for the Hawks.

The second half began as the first half finished, with neither team finding the back of the net early. Moriarty was called into action twice to make two saves in the first 10 minutes. The Hawks best chance in the game came in the 79th when Andrew Parker (East Haddam, Conn.) attempted a shot that just barley went over the crossbar after a Saint Anselm corner kick.

C.W. Post scored the game-winning goal in the 83rd minute when Joakim Ohlson (Lund, Sweden) placed the ball just out of Moriarty's reach on a shot to the left side of the goal.

The Hawks will return to action this Saturday when they travel to Northeast-10 Conference opponent UMass Lowell. The game will begin at 1:00 pm.
