JAMAICA, NY – The York College men's soccer team fell to St. Josephs College (LI), Monday, losing 3-2. The Cardinals nearly erased a two-goal, second half deficit but could not convert several scoring opportunities down the stretch to tie the game.
St. Joseph's opened the scoring in the 26th minute when the Eagles Adam Rogers scored off a rebound to make it 1-0.
