Ford Nets First Goal in Battle of Anderson Hill Road

PURCHASE, N.Y. – The Purchase College men's soccer team fell to Manhattanville University, 4-1, in a Skyline Conference matchup on Wednesday afternoon. 

With the results, the Blue and Orange moved to 3-6 overall and 0-3 in the Skyline, while the Valiants improved to 3-6-1 and 1-0-1, respectively. 

The Panthers opened the scoring in the 25th minute when Sebastian Ford (FY/Richmond, VA) buried his first collegiate goal off an assist from Felix Robinson (SO/Bronx, NY), giving Purchase the early 1-0 advantage. Manhattanville responded just before halftime to even the match, 1-1.

In the second half, the hosts broke through with three goals. Despite solid defensive efforts and eight saves from goalkeeper Luca Valeriano (FY/Bronx, NY), the Panthers could not overcome the late push.

Purchase finished with seven shots, including two on target, while Manhattanville recorded 26 attempts, 12 on goal.

Up next, the Blue and Orange return home on September 27th at 2:30 p.m. to host St. Joseph's University-Brooklyn and pay tribute to Morgan's Message.
