Men’s soccer (13-3-2, 5-2 Ivy) started its NCAA Tournament run with a comeback win over visitors Fordham (8-6-5, 4-1-3 Atlantic 10). Despite Fordham coming out to a 2-0 lead, the Red scored four straight to win the game and move on. Early on, Cornell dominated the game, with Fordham struggling to get out of its half and resist the pressure from Cornell. Lokko sent a ball across to sophomore forward Alex Harris, who softly placed a left-footed shot past the Fordham goalkeeper. The 4-2 win marked Cornell’s first NCAA Tournament win since Nov. 20, 2022 when the Red earned a bye and won its second round fixture against the University of Maryland, 2-1, in even colder conditions.
