SWARTHMORE, Pa. – The Arcadia University men's soccer team fell to Swarthmore College, 3-2, on Saturday afternoon.
 
Harun Abdullahi and Keegan Bower provided the scoring for the Knights with assists from Shade Foreman and Duncan O'Connor. Abdullahi connected on the first Arcadia goal with 14-seconds remaining in the first half, while Bower found the back of the net with less than 10-seconds left in the second.
 
Foreman fed a beautiful cross to Abdullahi, who played the ball on a header as he cut towards the right side of the goal. The junior placed a header perfectly to beat the keeper to his far side. The play was set up by excellent midfield ball movement after the Knights fought off Swarthmore's attack. 
 
Bower connected on a through ball from O'Connor with seconds remaining in the contest. The Knights stayed aggressive as Bower elevated a shot over the keeper on the near-side post. O'Connor controlled the ball following a throw-in and delivered a well-timed strike to Bower.
 
Joe Barile accounted for the opening two goals with tallies in the 12^th and 33^rd minute, respectively. Trevor Homstad netted the final Garnet goal in the 56^th minute.
 
Jake Varrato started in goal for the Knights and tallied a game-high five saves. Arcadia was outshot 13-7, but had a 3-2 advantage on corner kicks.
