His teammates Reegan Capozzoli and Dante Poli both contributed two goals to the team’s total. This match was a comeback from last season since the Ospreys lost against Desales in overtime by one point (14-15). 

In the game on Saturday against Elizabethtown College, the Ospreys scored a total of 20 goals. Both Poli and Colin Hopkins scored five goals, while Swedlund scored three. Goalkeeper Eric Lindskog made some great saves, stopping the Blue Jays from obtaining a lead.
