By Mia Nicholson, Public Relations Major '15

Annapolis, Md. - The Howard University Men's Soccer team suffered its fourth straight loss to the hands of the U.S. Naval Academy, 3-0 on Oct. 25.

Howard defense managed to block eight shots attempted by the Midshipmen throughout the duration of the game, but did not score. Navy retaliated by scoring three goals during the second half of the game.  Howard's defense made a vast improvement from the last game, and goalie Eric Hamilton was a great contribution, saving three attempted goals.

The United States Naval Academy outperformed Howard University with 21 shots to HU's four, and seven corner kicks to Howards one. Howard University was also fouled 15 times compared to Navy's eight fouls.

Next, The Howard University Men's soccer team will play Houston Baptist at home on Sunday October 30, 2011 at 2 pm.
