Merrimack Athletics Online Store / Game Notes

NORTH ANDOVER, MA - By virtue of a four-game win streak to end the fall season, the Merrimack men's soccer Warriors earned a five-seed and a quarterfinal date with the No. 4 Owls of Southern Connecticut State University on Sunday at 1:00pm.

Northeast-10 Conference Player of the Year, Robbie Sabadoz (Ottawa, ON) leads the Warrior attack with a conference-best 19 goals of the teams 32 on the year.

Just a week ago, the Warriors knocked off the Owls 1-0 when All-Conference freshman Olof Lindhe (Stockholm, Sweden) tallied the Warriors lone goal from Second Team All-Conference senior captain Greg Motta (Saunderstown, RI).

With a win on Sunday, the Warriors would either travel to top-ranked Southern New Hampshire University or host the eight-seed Saint Anselm College in the Northeast-10 Conference semifinals.
