SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo men's soccer team broke through Saturday evening and snapped a three-game skid as they knocked off the Eagles of Embry-Riddle 1-0 at the Saint Leo Soccer Field. 

The Lions were also paced by Forward Mauro Diaz and Forward Anel Rojas both with four shots on the night.

It was a battle early on with both teams playing very aggressively looking to get on the board early.
