Game Recap
  • The first half didn't see much action offensively, but the game took a turn in the 40th minute when the Eagles went down to 10 men
  • The first chance of the second half went to the Eagles as Marc Carreras converted for a 1-0 lead in the 50th minute
  • Carreras chased down a pass along the back line that was too far, dribbled into the box and slotted a shot into the lower right corner
  • The Blue Hose continued to apply pressure and dump balls into the box seeking an equalizer, which finally came in the 84th minute
  • Off a corner kick, the ball bounced around as Zacharia Diallo headed the ball toward the back post and Cesar Sancho redirected the ball into the goal off his head to tie the match
  • While both teams worked hard in the overtime periods, neither team produced high quality opportunities
  • In the final minute of the match Sergio Pinto took a shot but was right at Chandler Gaunce, but as he tried to scoop the ball it slipped through his legs, but the Eagles were able to clear it away
  • Presbyterian College finished with a 22-5 advantage in shots and 5-2 in shots on goal
 
Notables
  • Gaunce finished the game with four saves as he is now 2-1-2 on the year
  • This was the second straight tie for the Eagles, the first time they've tied back-to-back games since the 2009 Big South Tournament
  • In 2009 the Eagles tied Gardner-Webb 2-2 in the quarterfinals and Coastal 1-1 in the semifinals but advanced in each game on penalties
  • Carreras has now scored four goals in the last three games, scoring in each game
  • Carreras is the first Eagle to score in three straight games since Max Hasenstab in 2017 when he scored in four straight
