Men's Soccer Battles to Scoreless Draw with Eastern

ST. DAVID'S, Pa. – The Ursinus Men's Soccer team played to a scoreless draw with Eastern on Tuesday afternoon in non-conference action.
 
 
With the tie, the Bears record moves to 1-2-2 overall and the Eagles move to 1-3-1 overall after two weeks of the season.
 
 
Ursinus controlled play early and got three shots off in the first 20 minutes with the best chance coming in the sixth minute when first-year Sean McFadden had low shot saved. First-year Eliot Bowen had a corner kick knocked away in the box in the 31st minute before classmate Nathan Kinzel had a long shot saved in the 38th minute. Bowen sent a high crossing pass that was punched away by the Eagles keeper in the last minute of the first half. Senior Enver Desic had a low shot saved in the 49th minute and the Eagles had their first shot reach the Bears net in the 57th minute that was saved. Junior Declan Curran sent a tricky shot through traffic in the 84th minute that was saved. Desic sent a shot wide left of the Eagles net with 1:27 left in regulation that turned out to be the Bears last shot of the game.
 
 
The Bears held a slight 14-12 shot advantage for the game while the Bears held a 7-2 edge in shots on goal. Ursinus had an 6-2 advantage in corner kicks as well. Junior goalkeeper Josiah Moore made two saves in the 90 minutes while Ty Bleiler made seven saves for Eastern in the full time.
