Karkanjozi's Three Points Leads Hawks Past Mariners
Leicester, Mass. – Freshman Aldo Karkanjozi (Sterling Heights, MI) scored two goals and added an assist as Becker College defeated Mitchell College 3-0 in New England Collegiate Conference men's soccer action today at Alumni Field. The win improves Becker to 10-7-1 (5-2 NECC) and with the loss Mitchell drops to 7-7-2 (4-2-1 NECC).
Becker got on board just 11 minutes into action when Karkanjozi drove down the right wing and shot across the goal into the left corner past Mitchell goaltender Kevin Woodford (Niantic, Conn.). Becker doubled the lead at the 49th minute with a cross from Karkanjozi on the right wing to an open Tim Howard (Paxton, Mass.) who buried it into the back of an open net for a 2-0 lead.
The Hawks final goal of the night might have been the best of the night, Karkanjozi flied down the left wing and faked a pass across the net freezing the goalie and fired it left post.
Goaltender Tim McDonald (Holden, Mass.) made three saves in the shutout while Kevin Woodford had four saves in the loss.
