On Saturday Oct. 8, NECC Knight dominated Bristol Community College Bay hawks 6 to 1 at home.
Assistant head coach Marcos Viera Filho was taken over for coach Eusebio Marote who did not attend in the game because he was sick.

I ask assistant coach Viera Filho how huge was having a five goal lead into the half ?
“Yeah it was big, but sometimes it’s a little worried because sometimes we might unconsciously get the foot of the pedal but at least the guys keep it rolling and manage to put a couple goals in the second half so I am happy with that,” he said.

I ask assistant coach Viera Filho, who took over Saturday contest for Coach Marote, about his first career managerial win.
“It feels good man, it feels good most important we got the win collectively as a team we got a lot of guys in there typically don’t get big minutes that’s the biggest part,” he said.
