Newport News, Va. (9/8/07) - Christopher Newport University broke a 1-1 tie early in the first half and didn't look back as they defeated Kean University, 8-1, in men's soccer action Saturday evening at the Joe Pombriant/CNU Classic. CNU (2-2) got on the board just seven minutes into the action as Tyler Clare took a pass from Kevin Greenberg. Kean's lone goal of the game then game in the 23rd minute as senior Anthony Tuesta (Clifton, N.J.) had his team-leading third goal of the season to tie the match at one. The Captains then went on to score seven straight uncontested goals to put the game out of reach.

Playing without two starters this evening after yesterday's physical matchup, CNU outshot the Cougars 21-4 while also edging Kean 9-5 in corner kicks.
