Giovatto urges Terriers to come together
NEC champion Terriers lacking consistency, according to head coach
St. Francis Brooklyn head men’s soccer coach Tom Giovatto is not seeing the type of collective, consistent effort from his team that he is grown accustomed to over the past five years.
Fresh off their second consecutive Northeast Conference title and fourth league championship in the past five seasons, this dynastic program has opened the 2018 campaign with four losses in its first six games, including Saturday’s 3-1 setback at Iona in New Rochelle, N.Y.
“We have to play together as a team. It’s got to be a full team effort and it’s got to be for 90 minutes,” Giovatto insisted after the Gaels held off the Terriers following Rory Head’s go-ahead free kick in the 38th minute at Iona’s Mazzella Field.
