Moore turned the tide in Colts Neck’s favor in the 20th minute, when he weaved through a collection of Manalapan defenders and slammed a 18-yard shot into the upper right corner of the goal.
Manalapan goalkeeper Chase Lee kept the deficit at 1-0 with a quick-reaction save on a near-post rip by Sean Moore in the 25th minute and the Braves made it to halftime trailing by a single goal.
