Goals by McManus and Bride Lift Bentley to 2-0 Victory over #18 Franklin Pierce

WALTHAM, Mass. – Goals in the second half by Will McManus and Finn Bride lifted Bentley to a 2-0 victory over #18 ranked Franklin Pierce on Wednesday.

Bride gave the Falcons a 1-0 lead in the 58th minute and McManus' goal in the 85th minute sealed the victory.

Bentley limited the Ravens to just two shots on goal.

Bride's goal came off a corner kick that was sent in by Antonio Santos. Bride found some space in the six-yard box, boxed out an FPU defender and headed the corner kick into the far post for a 1-0 lead.

McManus' goal was started by a goal kick by Cam Hall, who booted his kick down the field and was flicked on by Daimon Pollard. McManus gained possession and outran the Ravens defense to get off a shot from about 12 yards that beat the FPU goalie to the near post. That gave Bentley a 2-0 lead with just over five minutes left.

The win was Bentley's first over Franklin Pierce since 2019.

The Falcons (2-0) are back in action on Saturday when they host Holy Family.
