Winchester, Va. - Despite
dominating the match from start to finish, St. Mary's College of
Maryland was unable to end its 2009 campaign on a high note as
Shenandoah University edged the Seahawks, 1-0, Tuesday night in the
season finale.
Even though St. Mary's (4-13) outshot the Hornets, six to two,
neither squad found the back of the net in the first 45 minutes.
Following a scoreless first half, Shenandoah (4-9-2) finally
broke through the Seahawk defense at 48:46. Junior midfielder
Kyle Farrell (Poquoson, Va./Poquoson) converted a
feed from senior Karim Kamara (Alexandria,
Va./T.C. Williams) for the would-be game-winner.
After the Hornets scored, St. Mary's released a flurry of shots
in a three-minute span but senior goalkeeper Arman
Bozorgmanesh (Leesburg, Va./Heritage) was up to the
challenge and denied all three attempts. The Seahawks other
two shots went wide of the goal.
St. Mary's finished with an 11-7 margin in shots after shots
were dead-even in the second half. The Seahawks also doubled
up on Shenandoah in corner kicks, four to two.
Bozorgmanesh finished the night with five saves
for his third shutout of the season.
Junior Paul Spranklin (Columbia, Md./Oakland
Mills) made only one stop in the loss.
