Victoria Reis scored the decisive goal in the 77^th minute to give Manhattan a 2-1 victory over Siena Women’s Soccer in Riverdale, New York. Senior captain Kelsey Horst scored for the Saints which suffered their fourth straight defeat, and third consecutive 2-1 loss.

Sophomore goalkeeper Taylor Dorado made five saves for Siena (4-6, 0-3) which lost for just the seventh time in 29 all-time meetings against Manhattan (3-5-1, 1-1).

The Saints controlled the action early, but it was Erica Modena who gave the Jaspers the lead in the 10^th minute. Modena attempted five of Manhattan’s six first half shots.

Siena would respond right before the end of the first half with Horst giving the Saints a key boost in the 42^nd minute. Junior striker Meghan Riccardi – playing in her first match of 2017 – led in Horst who finished for her first score of the season and the 10^th of her career.

But the Jaspers would strike last, reclaiming the lead for good with 12:25 remaining in the match. Emma Saul crossed in a corner which Reis corralled and fired home for the game-winning goal.

Siena held a 17-13 advantage in shots, although Manhattan posted a 7-3 edge in shots on target.

The Saints will look to get back on track Wednesday when they host Canisius at 3 p.m. at Siena Field.
