Head Coach Matt Watts - Happy to get the first win of the season. It's never easy playing against a team with 10 men who sit in and make it so hard to break down. I was pleased that the lads bounced back and reacted well. We got into some great positions, but when we get into these areas, we need to be more clinical. On to the next one. 
 

• In the 27th minute Theo Oherwall set up Marengo with a perfect pass, leading to the Sharks first goal of the evening. 

• Andrade extended NSU's lead with a penalty kick goal in the 44th minute.  

• The Sharks defense stayed aggressive, allowing only two shots on goal throughout the entire match. 

• Eduardo D'Avino came up with a huge save on a penalty kick in the 80th minute, securing a shutout and the 2-0 victory. 

• Zyan Andrade scored a goal in back-to-back matches. 

Nova Southeastern travels to Hickory, N.C. to take on Lenoir-Rhyne University on Wednesday, September 6th at 7pm.
