BOX SCORE

The men's soccer team won their third consecutive game with a 6-2 rout of Hunter College at the Met Oval in Maspeth, Queens on Saturday afternoon.

The victory also marks the third consecutive game that the Bearcats (5-3-1, 3-0-1 CUNYAC) have scored six or more goals.

Soung Foon Chao (Tenafly, N.J./Tenafly) started the scoring with a free kick that curled over the defensive wall and entered the upper right corner of the goal for a 1-0 lead just 3:31 into the game.

Camilo Reyes (Bogota, Colombia/Woodlands) stretched the lead to two goals at the 11:34 mark. Thomas Louisy (Gros-Islet, St. Lucia/Sir Ira Simmons) stole the ball off a Hunter player and charged into the box to pass the ball to an open Reyes for the 2-0 lead.

Hunter (4-5, 2-1 CUNYAC) responded six minutes into the second half to cut the deficit to 2-1.

The Hunter defense cut off a Baruch counter-attack and sent a long pass across the field that saw a race for the ball between goalkeeper Nelson DiBastiano (Queens, N.Y./St. Francis Prep) and Hunter striker German Dominguez (Corona, N.Y./Long Island City). Dominguez managed to get to the ball first and knocked the ball pass a charging DiBastiano for the score at 51:25.

Both teams fought hard for the next 10 minutes of action, but a Baruch goal by Louisy at 62:07 helped set the rout in motion. David Shin (Queens, N.Y./Millfield-England) fired a corner kick that met Louisy in the box and he scored for the 3-1 lead.

Baruch never looked back as Louisy scored his second goal (73:44), followed by Roberto Oporto (Peru) at 79:10 and Alex Sokol (Staten Island, N.Y./Susan Wagner) at 86:20.

The Bearcats will continue their schedule with their third consecutive home game this Monday evening against Rutgers-Newark. Kick off at the Met Oval is scheduled for 6:00 p.m.
