Men's soccer falls to No. 6 LIU Post

GARDEN CITY, New York - The American International College men's soccer team fell to a tough No. 6 LIU Post team, 3-0, on Saturday, September 1 to close out the Adelphi Tournament.

FAST FACTS:
Final score: AIC 0, LIU Post 3
Where: Motamed Field (Garden City, New York)
Records: AIC moves to 1-1 on the year; LIU Post is now also 1-1 on the year.

STATS LEADERS:

HOW IT HAPPENED:
  • LIU Post struck in the 35th minute, with a goal from Vittorio Argeri.
  • One of the Yellow Jackets' best chances came in the 37th minute, but a shot from junior forward Felipe Novelini bounced off the post.
  • The Pioneers extended their lead early in the second half with a header goal from Lukas Ostermann in the 47th minute,
  • Sophomore goalkeeper Ioannis Iatroudis made a diving save in the 53rd minute, but LIU was eventually able to push the game to 3-0 by the 65th minute.

BUZZWORTHY:
  • This is the first time since October 7, 2017 that the Yellow Jackets have been shut out; they were shut out just twice in the 2017 season.

COACH'S CORNER:
  • "I don't think the scoreline is necessarily a reflection of the game," said AIC head coach Luke Perry. "We had some very good chances in the game, but we didn't finish our chances, and they finished theirs. As the game goes, it's what you need to do to get to the next level. But I have full belief in this squad and what we're building here, and like we said from Day One, we'll be ready for conference play."

NEXT UP:
  • AIC will play its first home game of the year on Friday, September 7, with a game scheduled against Hartwick College at Abdow Field. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
