Robinson Scores 2 as Thomas College Win a Six-Goal Thriller
|
Bermuda’s Cody Robinson struck twice in a blistering first-half burst and compatriot T’syi Showers was also on target as Thomas College claimed an entertaining 4-2 non-conference victory over the University of Southern Maine Huskies.
Robinson and Showers featured alongside fellow Bermudians Tre Burgess, Chance Eve, and Justin Sukdeo in a fiery encounter that saw the Terriers dig deep to overturn an early deficit and see off a second-half fightback.
Southern Maine caught the hosts cold from the outset, breaking the deadlock inside four minutes to seize a 1-0 advantage.
However, Thomas College responded almost immediately through Robinson. In the 12th minute, Brynjar Johannsson picked out the Bermudian forward, who finished coolly to restore parity.
Less than three minutes later, the turnaround was complete. David Ivarrson turned provider to slip a pass into Robinson’s path, and the striker made no mistake, sliding home his second of the afternoon to push the Terriers 2-1 ahead.
The visitors pressed for an immediate equaliser, but Terriers goalkeeper Max Mulvey produced two sharp saves to protect the advantage. With tensions rising and bookings handed out to both sides in a fractious end to the opening period, Thomas College held their slender lead into the interval.
The drama continued after the restart. Nine minutes into the second half, the Huskies rattled the crossbar before Mulvey reacted superbly to push away the rebound and preserve the hosts' cushion.
Thomas College capitalised on that escape on the hour mark. Showers pounced inside the penalty area to bundle the ball home, extending the Terriers' lead to 3-1.
Southern Maine refused to capitulate, hitting back just three minutes later with a well-worked finish to reduce the deficit to 3-2 and set up a nervy finale.
The contest was settled in spectacular fashion in the 78th minute. Latching onto a loose ball in the box, Andrew Hodgins unleashed an audacious bicycle kick that flew past the Huskies goalkeeper to cap an exhilarating 4-2 triumph.

DeShield-Tankard on Target as Thomas College Hit Six
|
Adio DeShield-Tankard was among the goalscorers and Chance Eve provided an assist as Thomas College swept aside Vermont State University Lyndon Hornets with a resounding 6-0 conference victory on home turf.
The match featured a heavy Bermudian contingent, with DeShield-Tankard and Eve taking the pitch alongside compatriots Tre Burgess, Cody Robinson, T’syi Showers, and Justin Sukdeo.
In a remarkable display of squad depth, the Terriers utilised a total of 37 different players throughout the one-sided contest — a figure likely to set a seasonal, and potentially all-time, programme record.
The hosts dictated the tempo from the opening whistle, monopolising possession and pinning the Hornets deep in their own half. The early pressure paid dividends in the 12th minute when David Ivarsson delivered a pinpoint cross for Zayin Clugh, who fired home to break the deadlock.
Lyndon showed defensive resilience to limit clear-cut opportunities for the remainder of the half, aided by their goalkeeper and some wayward Terrier finishing. However, Thomas College eventually found a way through in the 33rd minute.
Eve turned provider, threading a pass to Serafin Garcia, who unleashed a curled finish into the back of the net to give the hosts a 2-0 cushion at the interval.
The Terriers turned their overwhelming territorial dominance into a rout in the second half. On the hour mark, Thomas College were awarded a penalty, and DeShield-Tankard stepped up to confidently dispatch the spot-kick to make it 3-0.
Eleven minutes later, Gabriel Dominicci put the game entirely out of reach with a brilliant solo effort.
With the Hornets tiring in the final ten minutes, Jose Andrade put the finishing touches on the victory, scoring twice in quick succession — including one strike set up by Abel Fjeldavli — to cap a ruthless 6-0 performance.

Ming's Syracuse Cruise past Le Moyne to Claim Sixth Win
|
Bermudian midfielder Sachiel Ming helped Syracuse University continue their fine run of form with a dominant 2-0 victory over local rivals Le Moyne at SU Soccer Stadium.
The result lifts the Orange to a 6-3-0 record on the campaign, built on relentless attacking momentum and a resolute defensive performance at the back.
After a testing, scoreless opening 45 minutes, Syracuse made their superiority count almost immediately after the restart. Just two minutes into the second half, Gabriel Oksanen pounced to rifle home an unassisted strike — his second goal of the season — to break the deadlock.
The hosts tightened their grip on the contest just past the hour mark. In the 63rd minute, Landon Darko picked out Bryson Rodriguez, who finished clinically to register his third goal of the year and draw level with Pedro Gulli at the summit of the team's scoring charts.
Ming and the Syracuse engine room dictated the tempo throughout, with the Orange firing an overwhelming 29 attempts on goal to Le Moyne's eight, including 12 hitting the target.
At the other end, goalkeeper Juan Martinez-Bastidas ensured there was no way back for the Dolphins, producing six saves over the 90 minutes to secure a well-earned clean sheet.
