\"Albany<\/p>\n

Adam Rouse\u2019s first-half penalty and a stout defensive performance throughout a drizzly night helped Albany High\u2019s boys\u2019 soccer team to a 1-1 tie with unbeaten Bethlehem on Thursday at The Nest.<\/p>\n

Rouse scored from the spot midway through the first half to give the Falcons (2-2-1 overall, 1-2-1 Suburban Council) a 1-0 lead. The Eagles (4-0-1, 2-0-1) equalized with a penalty of their own late in the first half, and both teams were strong defensively during the second half to earn a point apiece.<\/p>\n

Junior goalie Evan Bermejo, central defenders Kyan Grant and John Wah, and midfielder Jerry Gonz\u00e1lez turned in standout performances for the Falcons.\u00a0<\/p>\n
