YellowJackets, 'Roos Battle to 1-1 Draw

LONGVIEW, Texas -- LeTourneau's men's soccer team battled Austin College to a 1-1 double-overtime draw Saturday night.

Russell Gray scored his second goal of the season, putting the YellowJackets (1-0-2) on the board in the 48th minute when he dribbled in and fired one into the back of the net on an unassisted play. 

Austin (1-2-1) knotted the score at 1-1 on Jean Marie Luundo's connection from Cesar Escobar in the 75th minute. 

Both teams managed just two shots in the extra two sessions, LETU picking up its two cracks at it in the second overtime. 

LeTourneau goalkeeper Diego Berlingeri made three saves. His streak of holding opponents scoreless ended following a 249:26 run that spanned the first three games. Juan Rodriguez stopped four shots for the 'Roos.

The YellowJackets outshot the Kangaroos, 15-12, which included a 5-4 differential in shots on goal. Gray and Oscar Cravatio combined to unleash 10 shots for the Jackets, each of them putting two on frame.

LeTourneau had a goal called back in the first half.

Austin had 12 fouls to LETU's eight. The 'Roos were issued two yellow cards, while the Jackets had one.

LeTourneau will play at Centenary 7 p.m. Tuesday.
