Henniker, N.H.— New England College men’s soccer forward Sean Walsh (Kingston, Mass.) netted two goals and dished out an assist leading the pilgrims past the visiting Regis College Pride 6-0 Wednesday afternoon.
With the win the Pilgrims even their overall record at 4-4-0 and grab their fist conference win of the season improving to 1-2-0 in the TCCC. The loss drops the Pride to 3-4-1 overall and 0-2-1 in the TCCC.

one-on-one with the goalie just 4:46 into the game.
The Pilgrims would extend their lead to 3-0 quickly as they
would net two goals in a six minute span. NEC’s Sean
Sullivan (Sagamore Beach, Mass.) would score his first goal of the
season in the 23rd minute followed by Zak Harris

including two by Sean Sullivan and one by first-year forward David
Walker. The Pilgrims would finish the game out shooting the
