Manchester, NH (8/23/07)  The Saint Anselm men’s soccer team (0-0-1, 0-0-0 NE-10) opened its 2007 season playing to a 2-2 tie against No. 24 Dominican College (0-0-1, 0-0-0 CACC) in double overtime.

Dominican jumped in front 1-0 thanks to a Jhonny Arteaga (Stamford, Conn.) blast, barely clearing the hands of goalkeeper Scott Johnson (Plymouth, Mass.). The goal came at the 20:14 mark and was assisted by Joe Wright (Stratford-Upon-Avon, N.Y.).

The Hawks went into the half down 1-0, but rebounded well in the second half. At the 50:26 mark, Tyler Waldrupe (Manchester, N.H.) ripped a shot from about 25 yards out, hitting the crossbar and bouncing down into the net. Tim Hubbard (Marshfield, Mass.) was credited with the assist.

The Hawks added a second goal on the most exciting play in soccer, the penalty kick. Tim Hubbard was fouled inside the box at the 61:48 mark and converted on the penalty kick, giving the Hawks a 2-1 lead.

Dominican refused to give in to the Hawks, as Jhonny Arteaga added his second goal of the game at the 77:09 mark, assisted by Joseph Ruesgen (Campbeltown, Scotland), to tie the game 2-2.

After two exciting overtime periods, neither team converted, leaving the final score 2-2. 

The Chargers are back in action on Saturday, August 25th when they travel Southern New Hampshire University at 1pm.
