Nichols Bests Men's Soccer, 1-0

DUDLEY, Mass. — The Endicott men's soccer team dropped its Saturday afternoon Conference of New England (CNE) road contest to Nichols, 1-0, at the Nichols Soccer Field.

The Bison quickly went up 1-0 after drilling a shot into the lower left corner just 51 seconds into the game.

From there, the Gulls rallied, and gave themselves several solid opportunities to tie things up, but they were unable to find an equalizer on the road.

After the early goal, the backline and Ethan Harrison (Sandy Springs, Ga.) were nearly impenetrable.

In his fourth consecutive start (fourth of the season), Harrison picked up six saves against the Bison. His record dropped to 1-2-1 in the loss.
