The Zebras came out of the gates with fierce competitiveness, heart, and teamwork.  The game went back and forth in the first half with both teams earning chances in the circles.  Nobles broke through the Middlesex defense on one instance, but goalie Cece DeSimone made a heroic save to keep the game tied.  With near misses in the first half, Middlesex was determined to score in the second half.  The teams traded corners, but Nobles notched a goal on a well-executed corner play to take the lead.  Despite more terrific efforts by the Zebras, the team could not find the back of the net Saturday.  Nobles scored a safety goal late to secure the win.  The Zebras will look to bounce back against Rivers on Wednesday, October 26th at 3:15PM.
