Pace, Flowers and Mullins net goals in BIG EAST road win

SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. – DePaul men's soccer rallied from an early deficit to beat Seton Hall 3-1 in BIG EAST play Tuesday night at Owen T. Carroll Field, handing the Pirates their first home loss of the season.

Liam Mullins and Keagan Pace each finished with a goal and an assist, with Pace's tally his fourth of the season, Tyler Flowers added a goal and Jordan Clagette chipped in an assist. Chance Johnson made three saves in goal, including a stop on a second-half penalty kick, and the Blue Demons scored on all three of their shots on target while holding a 5-3 edge in corner kicks.

How It Happened
Seton Hall (5-4-6, 2-2-2 BIG EAST) opened the scoring in the 14th minute when Til Kauschke converted a penalty kick to put the hosts up 1-0.

The Blue Demons began to push forward after the goal, earning back-to-back corners in the 23rd and 24th minutes that produced looks for Ethan Gordon and Flowers.

DePaul (5-4-5, 2-2-2 BIG EAST) broke through in the 26th minute, as Mullins set up Pace for the equalizer via a header at the far post.

Johnson kept it level in the 29th minute with a save, and the Blue Demons went ahead moments later. Flowers pounced on a long Seton Hall throw-in deep in the Pirates' attacking third, carried it the length of the field and finished unassisted in the 30th minute for his second goal of the season and a 2-1 lead.

Shots were even 5-5 at the break, with DePaul holding a 4-0 advantage in corners.

Seton Hall pressed early in the second half, earning two corners and forcing a save from Johnson in the 53rd minute.

DePaul answered in the 59th minute. Clagette kept the ball in play, and Pace centered it for Mullins, who scored his second goal of the season for a 3-1 cushion.

The Pirates had a chance to pull within one in the 71st minute, but Johnson stopped Kauschke's penalty attempt to preserve the two-goal margin.

Christian Dionne nearly added a fourth in the 74th minute, but his shot was blocked, and DePaul closed out the 3-1 win.
