CARAOPOLIS, Pa. — Central Maine Community College scored two goals in 21 seconds and defeated Five Towns College 2-0 in a USCAA Division II National Championship men’s soccer pool play game Saturday.

Tiro Nong took a pass from Ordi Bimvy and netted the Mustangs’ first goal at the 50:22 mark. Ivan Domingues, a former Lewiston High School standout, followed with an unassisted goal at 50:43.

Domingues now has 27 goals this season, the most on the team.

Goalie Arnaud Nyagasaza stopped all seven shots he faced for CMCC (13-2-1). Steven Paguada finished with nine saves for Five Towns (7-4-2).

The Mustangs finish Pool A play Sunday at noon against Johnson & Wales-Charlotte, which defeated Five Towns 3-1 on Friday. The winner of Sunday’s game will advance to Monday’s title game.

WOMEN’S SOCCER
CMCC 5, PSU MONT ALTO 0: Natalie Tracy netted a hat trick and Lakyn Hink had a hand in four goals as the Mustangs beat the Lions 5-0 in a Pool A matchup at the USCAA Division II National Championship tournament Saturday in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania.

Hink fed Tracy for two first-half goals, then she tallied her first goal early in the second half. Oak Hill grad Alexis Finn provided the assist on Tracy’s third goal, and Hink capped the scoring with an unassisted marker.

Emma Knowles stopped both shots on goal she faced for Central Maine CC. Kiaya Mouer made seven saves for Penn State Mont Alto.

The resounding win gives the top-seeded Mustangs hope of winning Pool A after losing their opener Friday. They’ll need fourth-seeded Penn State Mont Alto to beat fifth seeded Cincinnati-Clermont on Sunday, which would give all three teams in Pool A a record of 1-1 in pool play. The tiebreaker would be goal-differential, with the Mustangs holding a differential of plus-3.
