NEW YORK -- Junior forward Taina Gervais (Port-Au-Prince Haiti) gave Caldwell a 1-0 lead in the 79th minute in a non-conference battle at Queens, but two late goals by the Knights propelled the hosts to a 2-1 win at Varsity Soccer Field.

Gervais put one past the QC keeper, assisted by senior forward Melissa Martinez (Elizabeth, N.J.) and freshman midfielder Suri Silva (Newark, N.J.). But Queens (1-2) put in goals in the 80th and 84th minutes to secure the victory.

Junior goalkeeper Ariana Gaminara (Las Vegas) made one save in the first half for Caldwell (1-1-1). Freshman Jackie Regan (Garden Grove, Calif.) played the second half, recording two saves.

The Cougars return to action on Saturday in their home opener vs. Molloy, beginning at noon at Caldwell Athletic Field.
