ST. MARY'S CITY, Md. - The Salisbury University men's soccer team suffered its first Capital Athletic Conference loss of the season on Saturday afternoon as St. Mary's (Md.) defeated the Sea Gulls, 2-1, in overtime in front of a crowd of 500. The loss snapped a five game win streak for the Sea Gulls.

The Sea Gulls (9-4-1, CAC 5-1) started the scoring off in the 18th minute when sophomore Alex Hargrove scored off a feed from Senior Zach Grubb.

The Seahawks (7-7-0, CAC 4-3) quickly answered in the 24th minute of the game as SMC was awarded a penalty kick. Alex Pyzik seized the opportunity and buried the ball in the back of the net to tie the score at 1-1.
