Box Score The No. 7 nationally ranked University of Toronto Varsity Blues men's soccer team defeated the Carleton Ravens 1-0 to earn a first-round playoff bye on Saturday October 22 at Varsity Stadium.
Â
The win improves the Blues 12-2-2 as they clinch second place in the OUA East division. Â
Â
In the 13th minute Carleton goalie David Monk got a red card, giving the Blues a free kick just outside the box, but the shot taken by captain Lukas MacNaughton was stopped by the substitute goalie Jared Maloney.
Â
Toronto's sophomore striker Jack Wadden had a great chance about halfway through the first to score a goal off a header, but just went over the net.
Â
It wasn't until the 30th minute that Blues sophomore Harry Michelis scored the only goal of the contest to give the Blues a victory over the Ravens.
Â
U of T goalkeeper Mark Rogal posted three saves in his 10th clean sheet victory of the season.
Â
The Blue and White await Wednesday's first round playoff results to determine who they host in OUA quarter-final action on Sunday afternoon.
