Soccer: Late goal pushes De La Salle past Patrick Taylor

Area Prep Soccer Report for Saturday, Jan. 22

On a very cold Friday evening, De La Salle scored late to down Patrick Taylor 2-1 at Pan American Stadium.

It was the first win for the Cavaliers since Dec. 29 and it was a welcome one.

Gabe Capasso put De La Salle on top, converting a penalty kick in the first half to give the Cavaliers a 1-0 halftime lead.

The Tigers tied it on a penalty kick early in the second half before Jose Bonet got the game-winner with 10 minutes left in regulation.

De La Salle (6-10-2) returns to action Tuesday night against Sophie B. Wright. Patrick Taylor (0-14-2) will face a tall task against defending Division III state champion Lusher Charter, also on Tuesday.
