PHILADELPHIA, P.A. - The Bloomfield College men's soccer team saw their six-game unbeaten streak come to an end at the hands of Philadelphia University Saturday afternoon during a 4-0 shutout at Ravenhill Field. The Rams celebrated their Homecoming in front over over 500 fans and improved their overall record to 4-3-3 with a 2-2-1 mark in Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) play. The Bears' record fell to 5-3-2 on the season and 3-2-1 in conference play.

Jovan Stanojkovic (Pancevo, Serbia) received the start in goal for the visitors and recorded four saves on the day, allowing only one goal in the opening period.
The Rams pulled away in the second half, scoring three unanswered goals as the Bloomfield offense sputtered on the wet grass.
Paulo Claudio (San Paulo, Brazil) and
Hugues Douyon (Port-au-Prince, Haiti) took four shots between them and the Bears recorded only two shots on goal all afternoon.
The home team enjoyed a 6-3 advantage in corner kicks on the emotional day with Bloomfield bearing the brunt of 5-out of-7 cards handed out on the pitch.
