Box Score

JACKSONVILLE Fla. – The Florida Atlantic University men's soccer team (5-7-1) dropped their final non-conference matchup of the regular season at North Florida (6-6-2) Wednesday night, 1-0. The series with the Atlantic Sun opponent is now at 6-3-0 still in favor of the Owls.

How It Was Decided

Both teams were held off the scoreboard until the 16th minute when the Ospreys capitalized on a golden opportunity in the box. The goal, scored by UNF's Miguel DeLeon Jr. and assisted by Robbie Soronellas, was all the Ospreys needed the entire 90 minutes of play. The Owls started out slow with just three shots taken in the first, but picked it up in the second half, outshooting the Ospreys 10-1. Overall, the Owls outshot the Ospreys, 13-4, but fell short in Jacksonville.

Of Note

Off the bench, Omer Priyov and Andres Macias took three shots apiece. One of Priyov's shots was inches away from getting past the keeper
Graeme Pratt and goalkeeper Hagay Jalon played in all 90 minutes with Alonso Coello Camarero following with 75
The backfield showcased another hard-fought effort, limiting the Ospreys to four shots, one on goal
