GORHAM, Maine - The Thomas College Men's Soccer (3-1) team suffered their first loss of the season to the University of Southern Maine (4-2-1) by a score of 2-1 in overtime.

The Huskies out shot the Terriers 2-1 in the first half. Southern Maine had a scoring opportunity late in the half, but goalkeeper Jonathan LeClair (Belmont, N.H.) made an athletic trap inside the box to deny the Huskies'  cross. Neither team allowed a goal and first half concluded, scoreless. 

Thomas dominated the second half, out shooting Southern Maine 7-3. Zenawi Bowen (St. George's, Bermuda) gave the Terriers the lead after redirecting a cross form Eric LaBrie (Yarmouth, Maine) just inside the seventieth minute. Southern Maine's Zekariya Shaib tied the game fifteen minutes later sending the game in to overtime.
