On an emotional night, in front of a combined crowd of 2,314, the University of New Mexico men’s soccer team opened the season with a 4-2 victory over No. 22 Seattle University.
“Lots of emotions today,” head coach Jeremy Fishbein said. “It was a hard one to get going but we’ve got a confident group, I couldn’t be prouder of our guys.”
A roster that is filled with new faces saw an immediate impact from those players, as Matt Puig and Omar Grey combined to record three goals and two assists and provide an attacking threat that the Lobos had lacked last season.
