ROCHESTER, N.Y. (September 12, 2012) – After a week off, the Men's Soccer team hosts Daemen College in a non-conference match-up tonight at 7pm.
The Redhawks are well rested after picking up their first win of the season, a 3-0 victory over former American Mideast Conference rivals Point Park (Pa.) University.
Both teams are very familiar with each other as both had been long-time members of the NAIA and the American Mideast Conference. This past summer, the Wildcats learned that they would be joining Roberts Wesleyan in the NCAA Division II transition and will become members of the East Coast Conference in 2013-2014.

Goalkeeper
Michael Scavone earned his first clean sheet of the year after making three saves in the game.
SCOUTING DAEMEN (0-2-0/0-0-0 Independent)

th-ranked Rio Grande.
