Men's Soccer Dominates, Defeating Castleton 5-0

PLATTSBURGH, NY - Plattsburgh State men's soccer defeated Castleton on Wednesday night under the lights in dominating fashion, scoring five goals to pick up their third win of the season. All five goals came from individual players, as the Cardinal's balanced attack was too strong for the Castleton defense. 

The Cards move to 3-0 with the win and extend their win streak, dating back to last season, to eight games. In that span, they have outscored their opponents 18-2. Castleton fell to 0-2 on the year, as they lost to Russell Sage in their opening game last weekend along with their loss to Plattsburgh on Wednesday. 

Plattsburgh State tallied their first goal of the game off the foot of John Hayes (Pearl River, NY/Pearl River) in the 16th minute, as the sophomore picked up his second score of the year with a shot that ricocheted off a defender and into the goal. The team picked another goal in the first half, as Dylan Shalvey (Cavan, Ireland/Tappan Zee (NY)) and Cole Weiner (Saint James, NY/Smithtown)  paired together for a brilliant two-man game, with Shalvey chipping a pass to Weiner, who finished with a header into the back of the net. 

Shalvey got into the scoring act in the second half, opening up the period's scoring with a goal in the 62nd minute, as Brian Coughlan (Pearl River, NY/Pearl River) found the junior for a breakaway score. The team tallied two more scores as Rocky Bujaj (Yorktown Heights, NY/Yorktown) scored in the 69th minute and first-year Colter Cheney-Seymour (Saranac Lake, NY/Northwood School) picked up his first college goal in the 86th minute. 

Plattsburgh had no trouble controlling possession throughout the night, attempting 25 shots and putting 12 on goal, and also earning 11 corner kicks. Adversely, the Spartans attempted just three shots, with none being on target, and earned just one corner kick. Teddy Healy (Amityville, NY/Kellenberg Memorial) was the benefactor of the offensive dominance and strong backline play, as the sophomore earned his third win and shutout of the year. 

Plattsburgh State will welcome RPI to the Field House Complex on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 6 p.m for a non-conference tuneup.
