KEUKA, N.Y. – Russell Sage College Men's Soccer scored a pair of second half goals on the way to a 2-1 Empire 8 Conference Victory over Keuka on Saturday.

The Gators (7-6-3/2-5-2 E8) trailed 1-0 at the half after a Wolves goal from Jariel Ubiles.

RSC started the second half off quickly, as senior midfielder Connor Swart (Walden, NY/Valley Central) took a pass from senior forward Lewis Whalen (Arlington, VT/Arlington Memorial/Saint Rose) into the back of the net just three minutes out of the break.

Sophomore midfielder Anthony Geis (Newburgh, NY/Our Lady of Lourdes) added to the scoring shortly after, capping off the afternoon's scoring with an unassisted goal just five minutes later.

Senior goalkeeper Aiden Van Oostveen (Westfield, MA/Westfield) (1-0-0) stopped five Keuka shots on the way to the conference victory.

"I'm proud of the resilience the guys showed today after going down a goal in a tough away day," shared Head coach Amir Pasic following the victory. "The boys are eager to get back on the field Monday and get back to work."

The Gators are back on the pitch on Tuesday as they wrap up their non-conference slate with a trip to Worcester State.
