BOWLING GREEN, Ohio — The West Virginia men’s soccer team earned its eighth clean sheet of the season with a scoreless draw in double overtime at Bowling Green on Saturday night.
Freshman goalkeeper Steven Tekesky made a career-best three saves and picked up his second shutout as the Mountaineers (7-3-4, 0-0-2 Mid-American Conference) earned a point in the league standings. West Virginia held a 10-6 edge in shots on the Falcons (6-6-1, 0-1-1).
“You go on the road, it’s always going to be tough, and Bowling Green is a grind-it-out team,” WVU coach Marlon LeBlanc said. “We had a lot of the ball and a lot of good possession. We had two unbelievable chances there and just missed the frame and missed chances to score.
“I thought we were in control of the game and just didn’t take our chances very well tonight. It’s a point on the road in a tough conference game.”
Junior Rushawn Larmond and sophomore Pascal Derwaritsch both had a team-high-tying two shots and one shot on goal. Sophomore Ryan Kellogg also notched a pair of shots as WVU played in its fifth overtime contest.
