Box Score The Nichols College men's soccer team was bumped out of the Commonwealth Coast Conference playoffs by a 2-1 score at top-seeded Roger Williams on Tuesday. The Bison took a 1-0 lead just 12:28 into the game as senior Kalen Obregon (Enfield, CT) settled a loose ball and blasted a shot past RWU keeper Kevin Deegan (Seymour, CT) for his first career goal. The Hawks went on to score the equalizer 2:09 before halftime and the game-winner midway through the final half. Nichols closes out the season 6-12-1 overall and 3-7-1 in CCC play.

Evan Solis (Seymour, CT) tallied the equalizer in the 43rd minute for Roger Williams.
