The FAU men’s soccer team began its season in Houston, Texas for the HBU Invitational Thursday evening and they beat the University of the Incarnate Word 1-0.

While both teams were facing each other for the first time, they started the game by being aggressive and not holding anything back.

The Cardinals had the first shot on target in the third minute from freshman midfielder Diego Toribio, but it was saved by FAU’s senior goalkeeper Neil Strauber, who looked to build from his performances last season.
