Men’s Soccer: Owls qualify for C-USA Tournament despite a 3-0 defeat at No. 12 Kentucky

FAU clinched the sixth seed in the tournament despite the loss.

Jose Alastuey (#10) recorded FAU’s only shot on target against Kentucky on Nov. 5, 2021.

FAU men’s soccer (8-6-2, 2-4-2 C-USA) played its last regular season game on the road in Lexington, Ky. as the team lost 3-0 against the University of Kentucky (11-1-4, 3-1-4 C-USA).

Despite the defeat, thanks to a 3-2 loss from the University of South Carolina to Old Dominion University, the Owls have qualified for its second Conference USA Tournament in program history.

Kentucky began its scoring in the ninth minute with a corner kick as senior defender Mason Visconti floated the ball into the box for junior defender Luis Grassow to head it in for the goal.
