ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Carleton College men's soccer team picked up its second one-goal victory of the week, this time securing a come-from-behind 2-1 triumph at Hamline University.
Carleton (7-4-1, 3-2-0 MIAC) was the offensive aggressor throughout the game, finishing with sizable advantages in shots attempted (15-4), shots on goal (8-1) and corner kicks (7-2).
Hamline (4-6-3, 1-4-2 MIAC) opened the scoring in the 22nd minute when Augustune Feika collected a deflected ball at the top of the box and tallied his second goal in the last eight days.
The Knights equalized in the 32nd minute.
Oscar Gates ran onto a through ball and tucked his fifth goal of the year inside the near-side post.
Carleton knocked on the door throughout the remainder of the first half and much of the second half before breaking through in the 85th minute.
Asher Burt's free kick clanged off the crossbar, but the rebound fell to the feet of
Riley Jones, who volleyed the ball home for his second goal of the season.
The result moved Carleton into a three-way tie for fourth place in the MIAC standings halfway through the conference season.
