MILWAUKEE – In a rematch of last year's conference title game, the MSOE men's soccer team settled for a draw over Aurora University. The two sides battled through a scoreless first half before trading goals in the second half with neither pushing things further.
RESULT
MSOE RAIDERS – 1
Aurora - 1
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Aurora (3-3-3, 2-1-1 NACC) tested Asher Harris early, getting two shots on him in the first five minutes, but didn't faze him at all for easy save. MSOE (5-3-1, 2-1-1 NACC) got their first chance on goal in the 12th minute with Nico Picha but couldn't get it past. The Spartans would get two more chances in the first half with neither getting through as the two sides remained scoreless at the break.
- The Spartans got the first opportunity of the first half and made the most of it, breaking open the scoring to take a 1-0 lead. After things were slow for the next 14 minutes, Picha took the ball up the right side for his own number to tie up the game at one. The Raiders controlled the game from there, not allowing the Spartans sniff a chance at the net, having three shots on goal of their own, but none could get past.
