CBU Wins Battle of the Bucs 2-1

Zach Tubinis scored two goals just 18 seconds apart to lift the Bucs to a 2-1 win over Barry Friday afternoon at Lynn.
BOCA RATON, Fla.—Senior forward Zach Tubinis (Memphis, Tenn., Houston HS) scored two goals just 18 seconds apart to lead the Christian Brothers University Bucs to a 2-1 win over Barry Friday afternoon in the first game of the Embassy Suites Classic at Lynn.

The Bucs (2-3-1), who had been shut out three straight games, snapped a scoreless streak of over 330 minutes when Tubinis scored off an assist from Gordon Blum (Houma, La./Vanderbilt Catholic HS).  Just 18 seconds later, Clark Bradford (Blackburn, England/Ribblesdale HS) lobbed a pass over the Barry defense to put Tubinis in a 1-on-1 with keeper Johnny Rodrigues, and he scored to put the Bucs in front 2-0.

In the 12th minute, Barry (2-2-1) cut the margin to one as Andres Perez scored off a Sascha Koettig cross.  After the early flurry of scoring, the defenses settled in as the Bucs held on for the victory.

Barry out-shot the Bucs 23-6 as CBU goalkeeper Harrison Cheatham (Franklin, Tenn./Centennial HS) made 10 saves.

The Bucs take on No. 6 Lynn Sunday at 11 a.m. Central in the final day of the Embassy Suites Classic.
