Men's Soccer: Cadets rally past Emmanuel 4-1

Box Score

BOSTON – The Norwich men's soccer team scored four unanswered goals after falling behind 1-0 early to rally past Emmanuel, 4-1 on Saturday afternoon at Roberto Clemente Field.

Freshman Eric Weir led the Cadets with two goals while senior Roger Motaze and freshman Ryan Campbell each added a goal as well.

Norwich (5-5-1, 2-2 GNAC) fell behind 1-0 less than four minutes into the game when Emmanuel's Allan Parrelli found the back of the net to give the Saints the early advantage.

However, that's all the Saints (4-6-1, 2-1-1 GNAC) could muster past Norwich freshman goalkeeper Alex Toomey who made two saves to pick up his fifth win of the season.

The Cadets got on the board in the 12th minute when Campbell tallied his first career NU goal off an assist from Motaze.

Motaze gave NU the lead for good in the 19th minute on a penalty shot.

Weir made it 3-1 less than five minutes later off an assist from sophomore Garrett Shufelt. He then capped the scoring in the 61st minute to give the Cadets a 4-1 lead.

Norwich outshot the Saints 7-4 and held a 7-0 edge in corner kicks.

The Cadets return to action on Wednesday when they travel to Lyndon State to take on the Hornets at 3:30 p.m. in their final non-conference game of the season.
