COLBY MEN'S SOCCER TIES MIDDLEBURY, 2-2

WATERVILLE, Maine --- Monty Hankin (Canandaigua, N.Y.) tied the game for

Colby College with about 30 minutes left in regulation and the game stayed

that way in a 2-2 overtime game with Middlebury College in New England

Small College Athletic Conference men's soccer Saturday.

Middlebury (5-0-1, 3-0-1 NESCAC) had not allowed a goal in three league

victories and had given up just one goal in five games.

The Panthers scored first when J.B. Gerber (Davis, Calif.) tallied in the

10th minute off an assist from Winston Rains (Grapevine, Texas).

Colby made it a 1-1 game at halftime when captain Ryan Boccuzzi (Storrs,

Conn.) scored off a direct kick in the 42nd minute.

Kellen Florio (Gilford, N.H.) put the Panthers up 2-1 with a goal about

nine minutes into the second half off a pass from Matt Haddad (Longmeadow,

Mass.).

Hankin tallied about five minutes later off a pass from Daniel Kiernan

(Brookline, Mass.).

Brian Davidson (Needham, Mass.) was credited with seven stops for Colby

(2-2-2, 1-2-1 NESCAC), while Craig Hirsh (Verona, N.J.) made six saves for

the Panthers.
