Women's Soccer Battles to Scoreless Draw with La Salle
8/26/2011 10:18:00 PM | Women's Soccer
Box Score
PHILADELPHIA - The Drexel women's soccer team played its second straight defensive battle of the young season on Friday night, as they fought to a 0-0 draw at La Salle's McCarthy Stadium. Victoria Troccoli and Eve Badana put together six saves to help preserve the shutout.
The Explorers outshot the Dragons 13-3, but all three of Drexel's shots were put on goal. That included one with just three seconds remaining in overtime, but neither team was able to find the back of the net.
La Salle tested startiing goalkeeper Troccoli early, as she picked up three saves in the first 26:19 of the contest. Drexel, meanwhile, got off just one shot during regulation, but their strong defensive effort kept the game alive.
The Dragons turned the pressure up in the overtime periods, with Jenna Lindsay putting up shots that tested La Salle goalie Melissa Sanger in the final minute of each overtime session. Alyssa Findlay had the Dragons' other shot, which came in the game's 32nd minute.
The Dragons are back in action on Monday when they open their home schedule against Delaware State at Vidas Field at 6:00 p.m. The contest was originally scheduled for Sunday afternoon, but was postponed a day due to the impending Hurricane Irene.
