Tariq Adio Scores Twice, Including the Game-Winner with 13 Seconds Left in, 2-1, Win Over Clark

Providence, R.I.--Junior midfielder Tariq Adio (Providence, R.I.) scored two goals, including the game-winner with 13 seconds left, to propel Rhode Island College past Clark, 2-1, at Alumni Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.
 
THE BASICS
Rhode Island College 2, Clark University 1
Rhode Island College (2-1-1)
Clark University (1-2-2)
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
• Adio scored his first goal 14 minutes into the game off a corner kick by senior midfielder Anthony Recinos (Providence, R.I.). It was Recinos' fourth assist of the season, all of which have come off set pieces.
 
• RIC held the, 1-0, advantage until Cougar forward Lucas Saia (Pembroke, Mass.) put a header into the back of the net to even up the game in the 71st minute.
 
• As the final seconds ticked off, the Anchormen caught a break with a throw-in deep in Clark's zone. RIC stopped the clock and subbed in freshman defender Andrew Albamonti (Westerly, R.I.), who is a throw-in specialist. His throw sailed into the box in front of the net and found Adio's foot for the game-winner.
 
• Senior goalkeeper Wesley Perrotto (Pembroke, Mass.) was solid again between the woodwork for the hosts, stopping six to record his first win of the season (1-1-1).
 
• The Anchormen are unbeaten in their last three contests. Recinos has two goals and four assists for eight points during that time span.
 
WHAT'S NEXT
In upcoming action, Rhode Island College will travel to Emerson on Tuesday, Sept. 17 (6 p.m.).
