Griffins Fend Off Eagles To Secure 2-1 Road Playoff Victory

Madison, N.J. - (11/1/2025) – The number five-seeded Gwynedd Mercy University (8-10, 4-4) traveled to the number four-seeded Saint Elizabeth University (4-7-4, 3-4-1) for the first round of the Atlantic East Conference (AEC) Championship Tournament. The Red and Gold earned a hard-fought 2-1 win over the Eagles on Saturday afternoon. With the victory, this is the first time in program history that the team has advanced to the AEC semifinals. Senior goalkeeper Andrew Roberto (Churchville, Pa.) was sensational in net, piling up 13 saves to preserve the win despite a relentless Saint Elizabeth attack that produced 28 shots and 10 corner kicks (7-4). 

Griffin Highlights:  

  • The Griffins struck early when senior defenseman Colin Stocklin (Philadelphia, Pa.) found the back of the net in the eighth minute (7:43), finishing a setup from junior midfielder Luke O'Donnell (Glenside, Pa.) to make it 1-0. O'Donnell was a constant threat throughout, recording a team-high seven shots and three on goal. 
  • Early in the second half, junior forward Devario Gboho (Philadelphia, Pa.) doubled the Gwynedd Mercy lead (2-0) just two minutes (47:08) after the restart with his fifth goal of the season, which proved to be the game-winner. 
  • Gwynedd Mercy finished with 12 shots overall, six of them on target, and showed strong composure in the final minutes to secure the result. 

Gwynedd Mercy University will travel to the number one-seeded Neumann University for a semifinal showdown on Tuesday, November 4th, with a 7:00 p.m. kickoff time.
