New York, NY | The Panthers soccer team played host to the Rockland Hawks at Pier 40 on Saturday afternoon. A huge second half from the BMCC offense pushed the team to a 6-1 final score as the Panthers recorded their fifth consecutive win.

BMCC looked on track to come away with another decisive victory at the 10 minute mark when Brando Guzman linked up with Jahvaughnie Johnson on a through pass to score the first goal of the game. Freshman Souleymane Bah netted his first career goal with BMCC at the 31 minute mark in the first half to give the Panthers a two goal lead, but a late score from the Hawks would narrow the deficit to 2-1. With 17 shots coming in the first half, BMCC appeared to be a little disappointed entering the second half with a one goal advantage.

Despite scoring just seconds before halftime, Rockland had their momentum erased when Aboubacar Keita netted a pair of goals in the 48^th and 56^th minutes coming off of assists from Brando Guzman and Brian Ampaw. The Panthers continued to widen the scoring margin with a goal by Mohamed Diakhate that was ripped into the back of the net from outside the box. Lucas Musse closed out the game by making a move to draw the Hawks goalkeeper out of the box, allowing him to score on an empty net.
