Brooklyn, NY – Freshman forward Mario Rojas (Pereira, Colombia/Yorktown) scored his second goal of the season after receiving a pass from fellow freshman Devin Leahy (Manhattan, NY/Trevor Day) to give the Hawks a 1-0 lead and eventual victory over Medgar Evers College in a CUNY Athletic Conference men's soccer match Wednesday evening at the Boys and Girls High School Field in Brooklyn, NY.

Sophomore keeper Bradley Highfield (Dryden, NY/Dryden) records his first career shutout, making two saves after facing seven shots in net for the Hawks. Freshman Kerri Pryce (Brooklyn, NY/FHS) made four saves in 25 minutes of action for the Cougars, while junior John Ajirotutu (Brooklyn, NY/Canarsie) had one save and gave up the games only goal in 65 minutes of play.

The victory improves the Hawks to 4-1-1 in the CUNY Athletic Conference and are now 7-5-1 overall. Hunter will continue its run towards the playoffs this weekend when they are on the road to face John Jay College for a Noon match at the Metropolitan Oval in Maspeth, NY.
