Old Bridge 1 St. Joe’s Metuchen 0 | Boys | GMC Tournament First Round

The Knights broke the scoreless tie in the 54th minute with junior Vihaan Patel scoring off an assist from Landin Lazoja. Senior goalie Corbin Cassin would be tested the rest of the way, as he was all game, but he kept the ball out of his net and shut out the Falcons for just the second time this season.
