Box Score
Staten Island, NY---The Brooklyn College Men's Soccer Team (3-3-1, 2-1-1 CUNYAC) faced a highly motivated John Jay (3-7, 1-4 CUNYAC) squad on Saturday afternoon and were unable to get on the scoreboard as they were shutout, 1-0.
Brooklyn had multiple opportunities in the last two minutes to tie the game, however John Jay goalkeeper Chris Adao(Colonia / Colonia, NJ) was able to hold the shutout intact as he made several saves at the end of the game.
Henrique Avellar (Julia Richman / Goiania, Brazil) scored the game's lone goal during the 23rd minute of the first half. Avellar broke between two defenders and put the ball past Brooklyn keeper, Michael Conway (Xaverian / Brooklyn, NY).
