The Foresters and
Manchester College battled on the soccer field for 110 minutes and
the end result was a scoreless tie.
The match was evenly played
throughout regulation and the two overtime periods with HU putting
17 shots on goal to 15 for the Spartans. Manchester had eight
corner kicks to five for the Foresters. HU keeper Kevin Keske
recorded seven saves and the Spartans' Matt Mullen had four.
"Solid team shape and organization
enabled us to get our first shut out of the year," said Coach
Lawson. "Our attack was dangerous tonight as we improved our tempo
and spacing in the final third. I'm confident as we continue to gain
experience, our timing will allow us to finish at a higher rate. It
was a hard fought battle and I'm pleased to get a result considering
they have had our number the past two seasons.
The tie gives HU an overall record of
1-2-1 on the season. |
