Men's Soccer Puts On A-Ritz Against Bloomfield, Extends Historic Shutout Win Streak to Five Games

BLOOMFIELD, N.J.  --  Since being shutout by nationally-ranked number one Franklin Pierce University back on September 11th, Post University Men's Soccer has been the ones manufacturing the shutout victories and did so again on Wednesday night on the road against Bloomfield College. With their 3-0 win over the Bears, the Eagles pushed their winning streak to five straight games, moved to 5-0-0 in conference play, and now own the longest shutout winning streak in program history. 

THE BASICS 

#12 Post University 3, Bloomfield College 0 

#12 Post University (6-1-2, 5-0-0 CACC) 

Georgian Court University (1-7-0, 0-4-0 CACC)

HOW IT HAPPENED 
Eagles' leading goal scoring sophomore forward Aritz Uriate continues to dominate the pitch for Post University, tacking on two more goals in the victory for a team-leading six goals on the year. But it would be an own goal that got Post on the board less than two minutes into the first half as a corner kick from graduate midfielder Andrea Berti caromed off the foot of a Bears' player in front before going by senior goalkeeper Jomar Vizcaino to give the Eagles the lead, 1-0.

From there it would be all Uriate as the sophomore would tally his first goal of the evening just under 10 minutes later in the 12th minute on a pass from senior midfielder Pablo Tenorio in a first half that saw the Eagles outshoot Bloomfield, 12-2 overall, and 10-2 in shots on goal as Vizcaino would make eight saves while junior goalkeeper Soren Jensen would get just one.

In the second half, Jensen would be lifted for junior goalkeeper Rodrigo de la Terga who saw his first collegiate action as an Eagle for the final 45 minutes of play without needing to make a single save. Overall during de la Terga's time on the pitch, Post would outshoot Bloomfield, 11-1 and 10-0 in shots on goal, while Urate would add his second goal of the match in the 53rd minute from sophomore forward Manuel Rilova and junior defender Omar Florindo en route to Post's 3-0 road victory. 

BY THE NUMBERS 

  • Soren Jensen and Rodrigo de la Terga notched the first combined shutout of the season for Post in the match, each playing one half 
  • 21 different Post University players saw action in Tuesday night's game 
  • Aritz Uriate now has 13 career goals and after tying for the team lead in goals last season, currently holds the team lead in goals scored with six so far 
  • Post University has recorded five straight shutout wins, breaking their all-time record of four which they set last year (9/7/22 - 9/20/22) -- Senior goalkeeper David Mollenthiel was the keeper during that streak while Soren Jensen, who is still tied for the most consecutive shutout wins record after playing 45 minutes, was backing him up 

WHO'S NEXT
Post University returns home on Saturday afternoon for a nonconference matchup against Southern Connecticut State University scheduled to get underway on LaMoy Field at 2:00 PM. This will be the first matchup between the two teams since 2009 with the Owls winning the first three editions of the head-to-head matchup by a margin of 7-1.
