History <\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n SAN JOSE, Calif. \u2014 Junior Sean Battistessa<\/a> staked the Sacramento State men’s soccer team to the early lead with a goal midway through the first half, but host San Jose State scored twice in the final 10 minutes \u2014 including the go-ahead score with just over five minutes left \u2014 lifting the Spartans to the 2-1 come-from-behind win on Sunday night.<\/p>\n The Hornets suffered their fourth consecutive one-goal defeat, falling to 1-4 overall on the year. Six of the team’s last seven matches dating back to last year have been one-goal affairs.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, SJSU picked up its second win of the season with the result, improving to 2-3 overall.<\/p>\n Battistessa’s score came in the 20th minute as teammate Zac Giles<\/a> lofted a perfectly placed corner to the back post where Battistessa buried a well-timed header for the 1-0 lead. It was his second goal of the season while Giles notched his third helper of the year. The assist was also the ninth of Giles’ career, putting him just two shy of a spot in the school’s all-time top 10.<\/p>\n
