CASTINE, Maine -- Maine Maritime Academy men's soccer fell 1-0 to Thomas College in North Atlantic Conference action on Tuesday evening, at Ritchie Field.

In the scoreless first half, both teams tallied one shot on goal, but Thomas held a 7-4 edge in total shots.

London Steede-Jackson converted on a free kick in the 79th minute to give the Terriers the 1-0 lead, and the eventual victory.

Joshua Reeks (Bedford, N.H.) was impressive in net, recording one save, while Sternas ended the evening with two stops.

The Mariners fall to 3-10-1 overall and 2-4-1 in the NAC, while the Terriers improve to 11-4 on the season and 7-1 in the conference. The Mariners return to action on Saturday against Green Mountain College.
