Freshman Sload Nets First Career Goal, but Penn State Falls to SFU

By Zach Reagan, GoPSUsports.com Student Staff Writer

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Christian Sload found the back of the net for Penn State's only goal of the match in a 3-1 loss to Saint Francis.

Sload came on as a sub late in the second half for his first collegiate appearance. Minutes later, he registered his first shot, which was a goal from 8 yards out.

"I owe that (goal) to Noah [Pilato]," said Sload. "He found me on a perfect run."

First goals are memorable and special despite the result of the game.
