JOHNSTOWN, Pa. — The Pitt-Johnstown men's soccer team could not overcome a first-half deficit in a 3-1 loss to Slippery Rock on Saturday afternoon during Senior Day at the Pitt-Johnstown Soccer Field.
Before the match, the Mountain Cats honored seniors Noah Weichbrodt, Ryan Kyei Boahen, Jack Moyer and Connor Luther for their time and dedication to the program.
The Mountain Cats dropped to 1-8-1 (0-4-1 PSAC) on the year despite holding the Rock to just three shots through the final 45 minutes. Slippery Rock moved to 3-5-4 (1-3-1 PSAC) on its campaign.
Three first half goals from the Rock, the first one coming in the 15th minute, sealed the outcome. The Mountain Cats, however, fought back in the waning minutes when Jimmy Quinn found the back of the net for the second straight match. Gabriel Diaz was credited with the assist.
Pitt-Johnstown recorded three total shots, two of them goal. Slippery Rock had 18 shots, 10 of them were on goal. George Pasko spent all 90 minutes in the net and made seven saves.
