Men's Soccer Drops Home Opener to St. Francis Brooklyn

Box Score WASHINGTON, DC --- Playing for the first time this season at Greene Stadium, the Howard University men's soccer team took an early lead but would eventually fall to the St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers, 4-1. Howard's record drops to 0-5 on the season while St. Francis Brooklyn improves to 3-2.

Howard struck first in the 16th minute, as senior Mario Martin sent a right-to-left cross pass to junior Rahman Alarape, who put a left-footed strike from 12 yards out into the net for a 1-0 Bison lead.

SFBK answered in the 39th minute on a goal from junior Kevin Correa to tie the score at 1-1, where it would stand until halftime.

Halfway through the second half, St. Francis would erupt for two more goals within a two-minute span (from the 78th to the 80th minute) and add another score in the 83rd to make the score 4-1.

Howard returns to the road next week for two games, first against UNC Asheville on September 20 and against Radford on September 22.
