Easton, Mass. - The Skyhawk men (3-7-2, 1-6-1 NE-10) tied the Saint Michael's Purple Knights (9-2-2, 4-2-3 NE-10) Saturday afternoon at Skyhawk Field.  Since losing three straight, the Stonehill squad has bounced back with two strong performances in as many games; defeating Bryant 3-1 last week and today tying Saint Michael's 1-1.

At half time the game did not look so promising for the Skyhawks.  Saint Michael's went ahead thanks to a last minute score from Tim Wauren.  Wauren's goal would be the only one goaltender Brian Guerrini (Glastonbury, Conn.) would allow on his way to recording five saves on the day.

Skyhawk sophomore David Pohl (Weymouth, Mass.) would answer Wauren's goal with one of his own; evening the score at 1-1 midway through the second half. Pohl's fourth goal of the season gives him the team lead.   

With the score knotted at one, the two teams headed to overtime.  The defensive struggle continued, as each team traded shots.  At the end of the 15 minute period the score remained the same, 1-1.

The game is another stepping stone for the men's team, which seems to improve every week.  The Skyhawks will hope to maintain this level of intensity when they host Bloomfield, Monday at 4:00pm
