Elmira, N.Y. - The Elmira College men's soccer team hosted the Bombers of Ithaca College Wednesday evening for a non-conference matchup to open the season. An entertaining first half was cut short around the 30-minute mark due to lightning in the area. After a back-and-forth start to the match, it looked as though EC had opened the scoring when Daniel Mercedes played a beautiful through ball to Adam Tufton, whose powerful finish found the back of the net. However, the play was ruled narrowly offside. Shortly after, the referee called a halt to the evening due to nearby thunderstorms.

Play will resume tomorrow, September 3, at 4:00 p.m. at Campus Field.
