The University of Akron men’s soccer team (5-3-1) finished Tuesday night’s match with its first tie of the season. A 90-minute game and two 10-minute overtimes could not generate a goal for either team.
Although the Zips did not get the win that they hoped for, there was still something good to take away from the match. Junior Stuart Holthusen made his 2016 season debut for the Zips after missing all of the previous games with an injury. Although the forward couldn’t come up with a goal, he led the team in shots with six, including a near game-winner at the end of the second overtime that went just wide of the net.
