Carnegie Pulls Out Late Win in M. Soccer

Visiting Carnegie Mellon University scored with 2:16 left to break a 1-1 tie and defeated the Yellowjackets, 2-1, in men's soccer at Fauver Stadium Friday night.

Jonathan Browne tipped in a goalmouth pass from Alex Beck to give the Tartans the victory. The play was set up by a long free kick from Dan Matalski from right wing to Beck on the left side of the box.

Rochester nearly equalized immediately. A long throw-in from Gary Stom was batted around the CMU penalty area and Nate Rimmke headed the ball over CMU goalkeeper Dave Thomas. It struck the crossbar and fell at the foot of Damien Hallatt. Thomas saved Hallatt's followup for a corner kick.

The teams traded penalty kicks. Nick Wheeler scored for Rochester midway through the first half after a CMU handball.

CMU tied it after the Yellowjacket defense committed the same violation. James Steidel drove his shot to the low left corner, beyond the reach of Brian Minehan.

Rochester is 8-4-1 overall, 2-1 in the UAA. The Yellowjackets host second-ranked Emory on Sunday at 11 am. Emory defeated Case Western Reserve, 4-0, on Friday afternoon to take over first place with 7 points.
