Game Recap: Men's Soccer |

Men's Soccer Earns First Conference Win

Albany, N.Y. – The ACPHS Men's Soccer team improved to 2-1 after beating Vermont Technical College 5-0 at home in their first YSCC game.

An early goal two minutes into the game from Sophomore Jay Carlson (Saratoga Springs, N.Y.) was the beginning of the end for the Knights. ACPHS was able to strike again with just over 12 minutes left in the half after Firaas Anis (Brooklyn, N.Y.) found Charles Middleton (Syracuse, N.Y.) for his first goal of the game.

In the second period, the Panthers maintained control of the game. Midfielder Sahil Arora (Waterford, N.Y.) set up Middleton for his third goal of the season – nine minutes into the half. Arora would put the game out of reach with a goal of his own 25 minutes in. Despite the exceptional display of offense, ACPHS's defensive efforts sealed the victory – holding Vermont Tech to just one shot on goal.

Coach John Adeseko spoke about his team's defense after the game, "The way we want to play is to keep the ball as much as possible. I keep saying we're not fit enough yet, so as soon as we can keep the ball – we make the game easier for ourselves. We got a little sloppy in the first half, but the second half was a lot better – we played our game by not being selfish and moving the ball. It was a good win; everyone was involved and got a chance to play."

After the win – Middleton shared how he and his team plan to prepare for the next game, "For next week's game, we have to just keep working hard at practice. The number one thing this

week has been getting our fitness up; we've been sprinting more, moving the ball quicker – that all comes at practice. We have been taking it very seriously, and the results showed today."

The Panthers will look to keep the win streak alive when they travel to take on Hudson Valley Community College Thursday, September 15th.
