Offense explodes to down St. Rose, 4-1

The Knights' offense produced big time in a 4-1 victory over the College of St. Rose in a non-conference tilt played in Flushing. The four goals scored matches QC's entire ouput thus far this season.

After surrendering the first shot attempt of the contest just 1:48 in, the Knights took control, pelting the St. Rose goal with 14 consecutive shots. The first of those shots to beat goalkeeper Alexander Parent came off of the foot of Brian Buckmire, who picked up his first of the season at the 14:42 mark. QC increased their advantage to 2-0 less than nine minutes later when Eric Vazquez took a pass from Santiago Bedoya and used his left foot to score his first goal of 2010. The first half ended with the Knights holding a 2-0 lead and a 15-2 advantage in shots.

St. Rose went on the attack in the second half and cut the Knights lead in half when Taras Panchishak used his head to redirect a Liam Barrett free kick past QC goalie Demetrios Touros at 70:12. Jose Aguije responded for the Knights by assisting on one goal and scoring another in a 26 second span to put the game out of reach. With 79:20 elapsed in the game, Aguije dribbled to the end line and found Akinyode Dele with a crossing pass that Dele headed home to make it a 3-1 game. Aguije then converted on a nice give and go wall pass with Danny Stoker for his first of the year to close out the scoring for the day.

Stoker had eight shots  - four on goal - to go along with his assist and Touros made three saves to preserve his first victory in net as a Knight.
