DULUTH, Minn. (csssaints.com) - The St. Scholastica men's soccer team tied University of Wisconsin-Superior 1-1 Saturday afternoon after the Saints came back and scored a late goal in the 79th minute of the game with the Yellowjackets playing a man-down.
 
How it Happened
In the first half, the Saints and Yellowjackets were evenly matched. Superior out-shot St. Scholastica 5-3, but the score was 0-0 going into the second half.
 
Six minutes into the second half, Superior scored after James Bruce was able to finish off from a redirect. With the Yellowjackets up 1-0, St. Scholastica fought hard to tie up the game. In the 69th minute a skirmish ensued and a red card was given to a UWS player. The Yellowjackets then had to finish the game one player short.
 
CSS finally had a breakthrough 10 minutes after the red card as Juan Ochoa (Chihuahua, Mexico/Prepa Tec) found Luke Buckton (Bath, England/Writhlington School) at the top of the box and Buckton snuck the ball inside the left post to tie it at 1-1. The game would remain 1-1 once the second half ended, sending the game into overtime.
 
During the overtime sessions, both teams put shots on goal in the first 10 minutes with a header by Nolan Friday (Duluth, Minn./Duluth East HS) being the best chance by either team. In the end both teams were unable to score, and the final tally was 1-1.
 
Goalkeeping
CSS goalkeeper Corey Bulheller (Middleton, England/Highfields Secondary School (Bacone)) was in for the first 69 minutes and made four out of five saves. Udeme Effiom (Uyo, Nigeria/Secondary Commercial School (Lake Superior College)) came in relief and finished the game. He saved one shot during the first overtime to earn the tie.
 
UWS goalkeeper Dalton VonKaenel saved four of five shots on goal.
