Box Score

FSU ended a three-game losing skid with the victory and sits at 4-5 while SVC falls to 4-5-1.

Junior Gregg Laskow (Plainsboro, N.J./WWP-North) also had a solid game for the Bobcats scoring his team-leading seventh goal of the year. He also added one assist.

Freshman Dante Dozier (Greenbelt, Md./Eleanor Roosevelt) started his first career game in net for FSU, earning the win after stopping nine shots and allowing a goal.

Gracia put FSU on the board just 24 seconds into the game with a shot past the St. Vincent keeper into the lower left corner of the net off a pass from Laskow.

In the 28th minute, David Lauteri knocked in a rebound in front of the goal to tie the game.

FSU had a chance to take the lead late in the first half in 38th minute but freshman Mike Bowers (Walkersville, Md./Walkersville) hit the crossbar with his only shot of the contest.

SVC controlled much of the second half outshooting FSU 6-1 over the first 18 minutes. Senior Kenny Dotter (Baltimore, Md./Sparrows Point) responded for the Bobcats scoring the game-winning goal and his first of the season with just over five minutes remaining in the game.

Three and a half minutes later, Laskow sealed the win with a blast from 15 yards out that found the back of the net. Gracia assisted the final two goals for the Bobcats, raising his season total to five.

"We couldn't ask for a better start," said head coach Keith Byrnes "We didn't play our best soccer but we made the most of our opportunities, we kept fighting and we were able to capitalize in the end."

The Bobcats look for another win when they travel to Medaille on Saturday, September 29 for a 7:00 pm game.
