Redhawk Men's Soccer Battles UC Davis to 1-1 Double Overtime Draw
In the sixth minute, freshman Travis Heim (Ridgefield, Wash.) scored his first career goal to give the Redhawks the early lead. Sophomore Ben Striar (Portland, Ore.) got the ball and passed it to Heim in traffic. Heim put a lone touch on it and sent in the go-ahead goal.
After back-and-forth play, with possession transferring between sides, UC Davis evened the game in the 25th minute. Kevin Schulte headed in a cross from Ethan Shawlee.
Following conceding the tying goal, SU's defense was put on their heels. The Aggies pushed their offensive attack and worked to take the lead; however goalkeeper Jake Feener (Rocklin, Calif.) and the SU backline held off Davis' continued efforts. Feener would go on to tally eight saves, in his fourth career clean sheet.
UCD held a 24-12 shot and 13-6 corner kick advantage over the Redhawks in the extra minute contest.
"Today was a tough battle for the guys. We had chances, but UC Davis is a good team. To stay in it and take them to a double overtime draw was a good step for the team. We have to build on what we did today going into Sunday's game at Cal Poly," said head coach Brad Agoos.
The Redhawks (0-1-1) travel next to Cal Poly for a Sunday, Sept. 4, matchup at 1 p.m. in San Luis Obispo, Calif.
