JENKINTOWN, PA—Manor College's (4-1-1 Overall, 1-0-1 Eastern States Athletic Conference) defense allows its fewest shots on goal this season (five) as the Blue Jays tied United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) Division II Williamson College of the Trades (2-2-1, 0-1-1), 1-1.

Junior midfielder John Levy's (Philadelphia, PA/Franklin Towne Charter) corner kick went to junior midfielder Eddie Fortescue Jr. (Blue Bell, PA/Wissahickon).  Fortescue Jr.'s head shot went into the left side of the net for his eighth goal of the season (16:19).  Williamson tied the match when junior forward Zachary Bozak's pass went to junior striker Brandon Cairy inside the 18-yard line.  Cairy's shot went into the right side of the net (42:29).  The match was tied at one at halftime.  The Blue Jays outshot the Mechanics, 10 (seven on goal) to eight (four on goal).
