The No. 6 Men's Soccer remained unbeaten with a decisive 3-0 victory over New College of Florida in a matchup of early-season unbeatens on Wednesday morning in West Palm Beach. After a scoreless first half, the Seahawks found their breakthrough with three second-half tallies, powered by fresh legs off the bench. The result extended Keiser's winning streak to five and improved their record to 7-0-1, while also marking their sixth clean sheet of the season.
The scoring opened in the 69th minute when Mohammed Mouzoune pounced on a loose ball after a misplayed cross from Eden Barlow, slotting it home for a 1-0 lead. Ten minutes later, Sergio Padín-Rey doubled the advantage with a spectacular strike from distance, curling the ball into the top right corner after being set up by Keanu Does. Keiser sealed the win in the 86th minute when Eric Neron-Bancel collected a pass from Raul Cedillo amidst heavy traffic in the box and finished calmly to make it 3-0. Goalkeeper Santiago Nebot made two key saves, including stops on both of NCF's shots on target, and the defense clamped down to hold SUN Offensive Player of the Week Cameron Johnson to just two shots.
