LEWISBURG, Pa. – Overcoming a pair of one-goal deficits and grabbing the lead for good in the 44th minute on freshman Sebastian Otero’s successful strike, the Boston University men’s soccer team claimed a thrilling 3-2 victory at No. 24 Bucknell Saturday afternoon.
With their first win over a ranked team since 2022, the Terriers (5-3-0, 2-1-0 PL) claimed three valuable points in conference play, as the Bison (5-2-1, 1-1-1 PL) saw their four-game unbeaten streak snapped.
Sophomore Pharis Petrica, senior Ethan Gill and Otero all netted their second goals of the season in the first half, while senior Sheraz Saadat recorded a career-high nine saves to help BU earn its fourth straight victory against Bucknell. Petrica assisted on Gill’s score and junior Lapo Romieri helped set up Otero’s game winner to move into a tie at seven points apiece.
