Men's Soccer Falls at Princeton

PRINCETON, N.J. – Rutgers men's soccer (3-1-1) fell to Princeton (1-0) on Friday night in its fourth consecutive road match. Camron Boumsong netted the first goal of his career in the contest.  

Rutgers and Princeton battled through the beginning of the first half, with both teams fending off multiple opportunities from the opposing side.  

The Tigers broke away in the final 10 minutes of the first 45 to take the 2-0 lead into the break. The Scarlet Knights still had the advantage in shots at the half, 8-7, and goalkeeper Ciaran Dalton made a pair of saves.  

Boumsong got one back for RU, with service from Nick Collins, in the 59th minute to make it a one-goal game.
