The UConn men’s soccer team got back to their winning ways Tuesday night. The Huskies advanced to the semifinals of the American Athletic Conference Tournament after beating the Temple Owls, 3-1. The Huskies were paced by a Temple own goal, as well as goals from redshirt junior Dayonn Harris and redshirt freshman Cole Venner.
As most tournament games go, the beginning was a tense affair, with both teams feeling each other out. UConn and Temple both showed good defensive shape, and were content to force errors. UConn had some early chances and got deep into the Owls’ penalty box a few times, but was unable to come up with anything.
