Mount Saint Mary Opens Conference Play With Shutout Win Over St. Joseph’s-L.I.

Sadofsky, Watts tally in second half

Newburgh, N.Y. – Second half goals from Joseph Sadofsky (Mamaroneck, N.Y.) and Bereket Watts (Southold, N.Y.) propelled the Mount Saint Mary College Men's Soccer team to a 2-0 home win over St. Joseph's-L.I., snapping a five game losing skid in the 2016 Skyline Conference opener.
 
Sadofsky broke a scoreless tie in the 66th minute when he decided the game with his first career marker. He took a pass up the middle from classmate Eric Hayes (Westhampton Beach, N.Y.) and tucked a shot inside the right post at the 65:19 mark of the match to give the Knights a 1-0 lead.
 
The Knights got an insurance goal with just under four minutes left in the contest when sophomore Joey Dolan (New Paltz, N.Y.) found classmate Watts near the right post for a tap in goal. Dolan beat a defender along the end line and fed a pass through the box that Watts deposited for his third goal of the season at 86:39.
 
Although the Knights needed two second half tallies to break the scoreless tie, they had several chances before halftime to tally. The best chance for the Mount came in the sixth minute of the game when Watts found himself in the box and fired a shot high.
 
Watts' goal in the final minutes of the game tied him for the team lead with Dolan, while Dolan's assist pushed his team lead in points to eight. Dolan is now tied with Hayes and Mike Zanfardino (Saint James, N.Y.) for the team lead in assists with two.
 
Senior Tyler Biscone (Garden City, N.Y.) recorded his first shutout of the season and the second of his four year career on Saturday. He stopped a pair of Golden Eagle shots in the win, giving him 22 stops on the season and raising his save percentage to .629. St. Joseph's net minder, Avery Gomez, also made two saves in the game.
 
Overall, Mount Saint Mary outshot the visitors 10-5 overall and 5-2 in shots on goal. The Knights took four corner kicks in the second half to finish the game with a 5-2 edge in the category.
 
Saturday's win, the Mount's first since the season opener, pushes it to 2-5 overall on the season and to 1-0 in Skyline Conference play. Next up for the Knights is a home clash with 2015 conference champion Sage. Kick-off with the Gators is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
