CBU Wins Back & Forth Game
Cape Breton University overcame some shaky defense in the 1st-half to hold on and beat Memorial University.
CBU 3 MUN 2
Sydney, NS- The goals came early and often in CBU's 3-2 win over Memorial on Saturday afternoon. MUN's Tyler Forsey earned the first goal of the game for Memorial at the 10' mark. The CAPERS speedy Cory Bent answered less than a minute later to tie the contest. Just 2 minutes later Fomba Fambulleh put the visitors ahead again. 5 minutes later, CAPERS captain Stuart Heath tied it again. Then 4 minutes later Marcus Campanile put the home side up 3-2 on a penalty. The two sides then settled into a more conservative approach the rest of the way with the CAPERS holding on for the win.
Turning point
MUN was awarded a penalty shot in the 91st minute as the CAPER defender took down the attacking player in the box. SeaHawk veteran Justin Forsey's shot sailed over the top of the bar and the game ended.
