WALTHAM, Mass. – Bentley men's soccer is back on the pitch on Saturday for the first time in a week when they visit #5 ranked Southern New Hampshire.
Kickoff is set for 4:00 pm and will be streamed live on
FloFC
Bentley's 2-0 start to its NE10 schedule was upended last Saturday when they dropped a 1-0 decision to AIC. Despite the result, the program's
Alumni Day was a huge success.
It was the third straight 1-0 result for the Falcons, who won their first two NE10 games over Adelphi and Assumption by that scoreline.
Heading into Saturday's game, Bentley is in a three-way tie for second place in the NE10 standings with AIC and Adelphi.
The Penmen, ranked 5
th in Division II, are atop the NE10 standings with 10 points with a 3-0-1 record. Their most recent result was a 1-1 tie at Assumption on Tuesday.
Last season's game between these two teams was a classic, as the Falcons rallied for a 2-1 victory at home. Trailing 1-0 with less than nine minutes remaining,
Michael Gouvin scored the tying goal, followed by
Parker Higgins scoring the winner with just over two minutes left. SNHU was ranked #2 nationally at the time.
Following Saturday's game, Bentley is back at home on Wednesday afternoon against Franklin Pierce.
