Jamie Taris, Leo Woods, and JD Conte • December 7, 2022

Sophomore midfielder Miguel Varela looks for a yellow card from the referee after being tripped late in the Commonwealth Coast Conference championship at Roger Williams University on Nov 5. This was a crucial point, as the Rams had closed their deficit to 2-1, and was putting heavy pressure on the Roger Williams defense. The no-call allowed Roger Williams to take control of the ball until time expired, securing their 2-1 victory.
