Double overtime brings Sea Gulls' second draw of the season

Box Score

SALISBURY, Md. – The Salisbury University men's soccer team came out of Saturday's game against Lynchburg College with its second tie of the season. The game ended in a 0-0 draw after the second overtime.

The Sea Gulls (6-0-2) dominated the game, outshooting the Hornets (4-2-1) 32-10, but they were not able to put any of the shots into the back of the net. Their best chance came in the first half when senior defender Justin Lambert headed a corner kick off of the right goal post for junior midfielder Stafford Chipungu to put into the back of the net. However, Chipungu was called for offsides thwarting the scoring chance.

The Salisbury defense was solid behind the leadership of senior defender Joe Rubel and Lambert only allowing the 10 Lynchburg shots and not allowing a single shot on goal in either of the overtimes. The good defense was impressive as the Gulls played the entire second half and the two overtimes a man down. Senior defender Casey Rector drew two yellow cards to earn a red card at the end of the first half.

Sophomore goalkeeper John Vnenchak finished the day having saved all three shots on goal that the Hornets challenged him with.

The Sea Gulls are set to take on Marymount (Va.) University on Wednesday as they try to win their second CAC match of the season. Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m.
