		<div class="desc"><p>The American University men\'s soccer team drew even in the second half with seventh-ranked Monmouth, but two late scores pushed the Hawks past AU, 3-1, on Sunday afternoon at Reeves Field.<br />
<br />
Monmouth (4-0) got on the scoreboard quickly as, in the third minute, Erkko Puranen tipped a Max Hamilton shot past AU goalkeeper Matt Makowski.<br />
<br />
Facing an early deficit, American (2-2) gained its composure and put together several good scoring opportunities throughout the remainder of the half. In the 17th minute, American\'s Jack Scott took a pass from Alassane Kane into the open field, but Monmouth goalkeeper Bryan Meredith came out to make a tremendous save. Later in the half, Mike Marino had two legitimate scoring chances, although Meredith was up to the challenge on both occasions.<br />
<br />
In the second half, the Eagles were finally able to get rewarded for their aggressive offensive play, as an Eli Dennis header off a Jamie Davin corner kick knotted the score at one in the 56th minute. For the freshman Dennis, it was his first career-goal.<br />
<br />
But the veteran Monmouth squad bounced back, as in the 70th minute, Puranen converted the eventual game-winning goal off a frantic sequence in front of the American net. In the 82nd minute, the Hawks added an insurance goal off the foot of Chase Barbieri, and held on to claim the 3-1 road victory.<br />
<br />
For the match, Monmouth outshot the Eagles, 17-14, and held a slim 8-7 advantage in shots on frame. Each team registered six corner kicks.<br />
<br />
&quot;It was relatively even today against a very sound and experienced team in Monmouth,&quot; Head Coach Todd West said. &quot;We have to work on cleaning some things up, especially on set pieces. We played hard and I think we have the potential to be a very good team this year.&quot;</p></div></div><br /><a href="http://www.potomacsoccerwire.com/news/700">&laquo; Back to full list of College</a><br /><br />
