CHAMPIONS! Ennis’ Winner Earns Men’s Soccer its First Skyline Title

Box Score

NEWBURGH, N.Y. – Sophomore midfielder Michael Ennis (Carmel, N.Y.) beat a pair of defenders to the top of box and fired toward the right corner of the net, beating the keeper with just 57 seconds remaining in regulation to earn the Mount Saint Mary College men's soccer team (12-4-3) its first-ever Skyline Conference Championship with a 2-1 victory over Farmingdale State College (9-7-4).

Ennis' game winner earned him Skyline Conference Championship Most Outstanding Player honors. His goal was set up by senior midfielder Brandon Mincher (Bayport, N.Y.), who fed Ennis with a pass to the top of the box.

By securing their first-ever Skyline title, the Knights earn a trip the the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history. The NCAA Selection Show will air on NCAA.com on Monday, Nov. 11, at 1 p.m.

The Knights took an early lead in Saturday's championship when junior forward Matt Garcia (Wappingers Falls, N.Y.) scored off a feed from Mincher from about 18 yards out at the 7:40 mark. The Knights took that 1-0 edge into the intermission.

Farmingdale State did not stay behind for long once the second half began. J.T. Famularo found a rebound off the post and tipped it into the net at the 49-minute mark to knot the game up at one.

Senior goalkeeper Matt Darling (Staatsburg, N.Y.) picked up the win for the Knights after making three saves and allowing just one goal. Angelo Viteritti shouldered the loss for the Rams, allowing two goals but stopping six shots in the process.

The Knights nearly doubled the amount of shots the Rams took, holding a 15-8 advantage in Saturday's win.

The Knights await their fate, which will be determined on Monday's NCAA Selection Show, which will air at 1 p.m. on NCAA.com.
