College Beat: Upset-minded St. Francis Terriers hold their own at UConn
St. Francis men’s soccer coach Tom Giovatto nearly oversaw one of the biggest victories in the history of the program during Saturday afternoon’s season opener in Storrs, Conn.
But even following what turned out to be a tough 1-0 loss to fourth-ranked Connecticut, Giovatto was enthused about his team’s performance and what it might mean for the Terriers going forward.
“I thought the team played extremely well this evening in front of one of the largest crowds we have ever played in front of,” noted the sixth-year coach, who watched his team go toe-to-toe with a national powerhouse in hostile territory before 5,100 Huskies fans.
