Win 1-0
The Big Red were back under the lights on Taft’s campus for the second time in three days, as the Rhinos hosted a determined Suffield side. Midway through the first half, Taft took the lead when Max Rivera cut inside from the wing and played a pass to Preston Alessio. Alessio found a little space atop the Suffield penalty area and unleashed a low shot into the corner of the net to give Taft the lead. Throughout the rest of the match, Taft pushed for an insurance goal, but the Suffield defense stood firm. Suffield made several valiant attempts to level the score, but the Rhinos got excellent defensive efforts from La Zai Outerbridge and Vincent Hassel and managed to keep Suffield off the scoreboard. Joaquín Mañon also performed exceptionally well in the midfield for The Rhinos. In the end, the match ended 1-0 in favor of The Big Red.
