Frazao's Late Header Leads Men's Soccer To 1-1 Tie At Gordon

WENHAM, Mass. — The Endicott men's soccer team played to a 1-1 draw against Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) rival Gordon on Tuesday evening at the Brigham Athletic Complex.

Through the first half, the Gulls were held scoreless by the Fighting Scots' defense and found themselves down 1-0. However, Tiago Frazao (Trumbull, Conn.) provided some late-game heroics to get the Blue and Green on the board. 

Frazao headed in his seventh goal of the season off of a high-arcing back post corner kick guided in from Conor Rooney (Monroe, Conn.). The late header goal proved to be the equalizer in the match.

Kyle Rosa (Norton, Mass.) saved four shots in the tie, holding the Fighting Scots scoreless through the final 75 minutes of play.
