NEW YORK – The sixth-seeded Yeshiva University men's soccer team will continue its historic run, and quest for a Skyline Championship, on Wednesday afternoon with a league semifinal match at No. 2 College of Mount Saint Vincent. The action at the Athletic Field at Marillac will begin at 2:00 p.m.

There will be live stats and live streaming video for the contest. 

The Maccabees (5-7-1) earned its first-ever trip to the Skyline Semifinals by outscoring No. 3 Farmingdale State College in penalty kicks, 4-3. Yeshiva trailed, 2-0, with less than five minutes remaining in regulation time but goals by reigning Skyline Rookie of the Week Asher Martin and teammate Naor Dahan, just 48 seconds apart, evened up the match. In the shootout, Nicolas Dlugach stopped three penalty kicks, while Yonatan Reiter scored in the sixth round to clinch a conference semifinal spot for the Macs. Martin, Ethan Fettaya, and Marc Ziarno also scored during the shootout.

The Dolphins earned the No. 2 seed, and a first-round bye, thanks to going 9-1-1 in league matches (12-1-2 overall). Mount Saint Vincent earned an impressive non-conference road victory over nationally-ranked No. 7 (at the time) New York University, 2-1, back on October 12.
