NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale men's soccer team plays its home finale on Saturday, and it will present a challenge. The Bulldogs face No. 15 Cornell in a 5 p.m. kickoff at Reese Stadium.
 
Prior to the start, Yale will honor its seven seniors making their final appearance at Reese. Sigfus Arnason, Paolo Carroll, Jeremy Haddock, Jules Oberg, Will Seidman, Thomas Toney and captain Jeremy Haddock have made outstanding contributions both on and off the field. Six of the seven were a part of the memorable 2019 team that captured Yale's first outright Ivy League championship since 1991 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Since the start of the 2018 season, the Bulldogs have won 33 games, the most of any four-season stretch since 2005.
 
The Bulldogs (6-4-4) are coming off a scoreless tie at Columbia last Saturday. Elian Haddock made three saves in goal to post the shutout for Yale.
 
Ten different Bulldogs have scored this season, led by Carroll, who has seven goals, which is tied for second in the league.
 
Last season in New Haven, Kahveh Zahiroleslam scored with less than six minutes remaining in the second half to lift Yale to a 1-0 victory over Cornell. Haddock made six saves, many of them with a high degree of difficulty, to earn the shutout.
 
SCOUTING CORNELL
 
The Big Red (12-3, 4-1 Ivy) is tied with Penn atop the Ivy standings. Cornell has won three straight games, including a 2-1 victory over Dartmouth last Saturday. The Big Red wrap up the regular season next Saturday at home vs. Columbia. Brandon Morales is second in the Ivy League with his 21 points (seven goals, seven assists). Morales is one of three Ivy League players with 20-plus points, joining Penn's Stas Korzeniowski (22 points) and Ben Stitz (20 points). Morales has an Ivy League-leading five multi-point games.
