DARTMOUTH, Mass. — With 18 seconds remaining in the first half,
Bamfa Fofana (New York, N.Y.) netted the eventual game-winner for Western Connecticut State University's 1-0 Little East Conference (LEC) win on the road at UMass Dartmouth on Friday. The Wolves improved to 7-2-3 overall and 3-0-0 in the league, while the Corsairs dropped to 2-3-3 and 0-1-2.
Off a pass on the run by
Jonathan Buxton (Windsor, Conn.), Fofana made a sliding goal from the 15-yard line across the right of the net, just inches from the goalkeeper's gloves.
WestConn outshot the hosts 12-5, with a 3-2 shots-on-goal advantage. Both goalkeepers made a pair of saves, with
Aime Ruggles (Bronx, N.Y,) collecting his sixth win of the season, as Edward Corliss was awarded the loss.
The Wolves remain on the road for a non-conference match with nearby Wesleyan University on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
