The Raiders defense of Javonie Barham, Gaynor Leveridge, Colbey Hime and Daniel Leach was strong once again as FM controlled possession much of the game.  Goalkeeper Jason Meneses tallied 7 saves in the match.

"The strength of this year's team has always been our defensive organization and they played to our expectations.  We continue to struggle to find the back of the net, however we came away with the win.  So putting everything into perspective we took care of business," said Leggiero.

The Raiders next contest is Saturday, September 21st at Jefferson and will host Broome on Sunday at 1:00 p.m.
