HAMILTON, NY – Host Colgate scored with less than 23 minutes left in the game in what would prove to be the game’s only tally on Tuesday night in Hamilton. The Hawks fall to 2-8-4 overall. The Raiders improve to 6-7-1.
            The Hawks were out-shot in the game, 15-3. Hartwick keeper Mateo Munarriz (Bogota, Colombia/Colegio Granadino) made six saves in his first appearance this season.
            The Hawks held the Raiders in the first half with both teams combining for just four shots total. ’Wick was able to limit any chances from leading scorer Ethan Kutler, who entered the game ranked second in points per game and third in goals per game in the country this season.
            “In the first half we were fine,” said Hartwick head coach John Scott. “We kept Kutler quiet and there were no real saves for Mateo to make. Going forward we needed to be better at times but overall we were solid.”
            Scott used more personnel in the second half with a critical conference game coming up at Georgia State on Saturday night, and the Raiders began to take over.
            “With the trip to Georgia in mind, we started subbing and our level dropped off,” added Scott. “Some players got a chance to play tonight and they needed to make more of the opportunity.
            The Raiders would hold a 12-2 edge in shots in the second half. The deciding goal came when Kutler got free on the end line and delivered a pass to Troy Moo-Pan who finished it off for his first career tally.
            Nick Hills (Garden Suburb, Australia/Univ. of Newcastle) had two of the Hawks’ three shots on the night. Kit Tregear’s (Brighton, England/BHASVIC) effort was the only one to force a save from Colgate keeper Rick Brown near the final minute of play.
            Hartwick, which is tied for first place in the Sun Belt with Howard University, travels to Atlanta to face the Georgia State Panthers in its second-to-last conference match of the regular season Saturday. The Hawks also host Howard on November 1 prior to the Sun Belt playoffs.
