Kingston, Ont. - It was a day of mixed results for the Carleton Ravens on Friday as they travelled to Queen’s.
In the opening contest the women’s team got off to a slow start and never closed the gap losing 6-0 to Queen’s. The Ravens seemed to settle down after the Gaels scored twice in the opening 11 minutes, but the calm only held until midway through the second half.
Looking to work their way back into the game, the Ravens left themselves open defensively and the Gaels capitalized score four goals in the final thirty minutes.
On the men’s side, the Ravens found themselves behind at the half before they were able to bounce back quickly in the second. Eric Yoseke evened the score early in the half when he hammered a pass from Raphaël Garcia into the top corner.
The game would remain tied into the 90th minute when Anthony Domanico placed a flying boot onto another Raphaël Garcia cross for the last-minute victory.
The Ravens men’s side will return to action on Sunday when they host the Gaels at TAAG Park. The game is space of a special Super Sunday where one ticket gets you admission to both Ravens women’s rugby and men’s soccer.
