The men's soccer team tripped up the #7 nationally ranked Onondaga Lazers on Saturday afternoon. In what would be a rainy contest, Jackson McCandlish took just 10 seconds to score the first goal of the game and the Raiders led, 1-0.

The Lazers fired back and scored in the 16th minute to tie the game. Jack Hopson from Onondaga converted on a penalty kick to take the lead at half-time.

In the 54th minute, McCandlish scored his second goal from a Marvin Koceku pass and the game was notched at 2-2. Koceku scored the final goal of the game in the 68th minute off an assist from Kyrise Frontin, which ultimately won the game.

The Raiders defense was stellar in the second half and held the Lazers scoreless. Joseph Gander tallied 3 saves in the win.

Jackson McCandlish leads the team with 10 goals (7th in the region) this season and Koceku leads with 8 assists (9th in the region).

The Raiders improve to 6-2 overall and are 5th in the Region 3 standings. Their next game will be on Wednesday, October 11th at North Country Community College.
