BRYANT UNDEFEATED IN THE OCEAN STATE, DEFEATS PROVIDENCE 2-1

Providence, R.I. – Mamadi Jiana broke through and carved the defense lifting the No. 17 Bryant University men's soccer team to a 2-1 victory over Providence on Saturday night at Chapey Field.

The Bulldogs earned their fifth-straight win of the season improving their record to 5-0-1. This result marks the first time that Bryant was able to defeat Providence in a men's soccer match in DI program history, a statement win in the smallest state as the campaign for the Pride of Smithfield continues.

The Bulldogs allowed an early goal from the Friars but quickly responded. Mamadi Jiani received a pass on the left side, controlling the tempo and striking at the perfect opportunity to deliver the equalizer early into the game.
