Freshman Philip Pilgrim scored two goals to give the University of The Bahamas men's soccer team a 3-1 victory over Cavalier F.C. Sunday in the Bahamas Football Association (BFA) Knockout Cup to advance to the semi-final.

The win gave UB a 6-2 victory on the two-leg format of the Knockout Cup after winning the first leg with an identical 3-1 score. Pilgrim spoke about his performance in this match.

It was a sluggish start for UB at the Roscow A.L. Davies Soccer Fields, but they were able to get their attack going with captain Ronaldo Green breaking past Cavalier's defense in the 39th minute. He showed his dribbling skills off as he put his team up 1-0 with a well-placed goal.

The intermission saw UB up 1-0 and looking to hold off a Cavalier team trying to win the second leg of the Cup matchup.

UB's Head coach Alex Thompson made some key changes to his offensive attack that paid off in the 51st minute. Green sent the ball in the air to Pilgrim who controlled it with his right feet in the 18-yard box and dribbled it before getting past the Cavalier goalkeeper and into the back of the net to put his team up 2-1.

Pilgrim pounced on a pass from forward Sidney Decius in the six-yard box to score his second goal four minutes later. That lead put UB up 3-0. Pilgrim found the back of the net twice before being subbed off in the 70th minute but both were called for offside and taken back.

Cavalier scored a goal in the 83rd minute but UB led 3-1 with that being the final score.

UB returns to the pitch Sunday March 30 in the league's first division play. They will play the league leaders, Western Warriors Titans at 4.45 p.m. at the Roscow A.L. Davies Soccer Fields.
