Salisbury scores late to beat No. 24 Rochester
SALISBURY, Md. – The Salisbury University men's soccer team shut out the 24th ranked University of Rochester, 1-0, Saturday afternoon at SU Soccer Complex as the Gulls netted the game-winner late in the match.

The Sea Gulls (5-1-1) played tough all game before they broke the scoreless tie in the 84th minute. Freshman Kyle Sterling set up a streaking Wijy Jones, who beat Rochester goalie Paco Corbalan (three saves), for his second goal of the year.

The Gulls stepped up and outshot the Yellowjackets (4-2-1) in the second half, 9-3.

SU got another great game in goal from junior Matt Blue (three saves) as he earned his second win in as many starts. Seniors Scott Forney and T.J. Nairn led the Sea Gull defense, as they held Rochester’s two top goal scorers to only two shots (one on goal). Salisbury's defense has not given up a goal in 180 minutes since the overtime loss to York College a week ago.

Salisbury is midway through its five-game home stand (SU is 2-1 during the home stand) as the Gulls will toe it up again 4 p.m., Wednesday, September 27, against Capital Athletic Conference foe St. Mary's College (Md.).
