Men’s Soccer Draw Against the Statesmen, Eyes Focused on SUNYAC Playoffs

BUFFALO, NY – The #17 Buffalo State men's soccer team battled to a draw against the Hobart College Statesmen 0-0 in their last regular season matchup of the season.

THE BASICS

FINAL SCORE: #17 Buffalo State – 0, Hobart College – 0
LOCATION: Coyer Field – Buffalo, NY
RECORDS: Buffalo State: 13-1-3 (7-1-1 SUNYAC), Hobart College: 5-5-5 (4-2-2 Liberty League)

INSIDE THE BENGAL BOX SCORE
  • Diego Rivera (East Meadow, NY/Cairo Durham) led the Bengals with five shots. Frank Colella (Staten Island, NY/Tottenville) and Sa-Jan Magar (Cheektowaga, NY/McKinley) both were credited with a shot on goal.  
  • Shae Wirt (Overland Park, KS/St. Thomas Aquinas) completed a full game shutout, making five saves in net, and tallying his ninth shutout of the season.
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • In their regular season finale, the Bengals came out the gate controlling tempo and play early. A couple early shots for the Bengals had the Statesmen worried, but the Statesmen would respond with their own offensive attack putting the pressure on the Bengals defense.
  • Things would remain an even fight, as both teams looked to gain the goal advantage before the halftime whistle. As neither offense was able to get behind each other's defense, both teams would go into halftime tied at 0.
  • The second half would continue the same fight, with each team looking to generate chances at the net. Play started to intensify late into the second half…but on a breezy night at Coyer Field, the Bengals and the Statesmen were unable to get the game-winning goal, finishing today's non-conference bout in a 0-0 draw.
  • The Bengals were outshot by the Statesmen 15 to 12, with five shots on net for the Statesmen, to the Bengals two. 
FOR THE FOES
  • Keegan Mulroony led the Statesmen with five shots, with one on goal.
  • Thomas Chyzowych kept the Bengals off the board, tallying two saves in net in 90 minutes of play.
