Men's Soccer Plays to 1-1 Draw with Hoosiers

April 21, 2007

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- Paul Hoste scored the equalizer in the 76th minute and the University of Cincinnati men's soccer team played seven-time national champion Indiana to a 1-1 draw on Friday (April 20) at the Literacy Classic at Warren Central High School. The Bearcats are now 1-1-4 during the spring season.

The Hoosiers netted a goal just before halftime, with Brad Ring firing a 20-yard shot that was deflected past UC keeper John-Michael Boggs.

The teams traded scoring attempts until Hoste, who assisted on the game-winner against Northern Kentucky on April 15, put home his first collegiate goal with 13 minutes to play.

Boggs manned UC's net for the entire match.

"We played pretty well for 90 minutes," head coach Hylton Dayes said. "It was a good goal by Paul Hoste at an opportune time. This is a positiv step for our team as our spring season winds down."

The Bearcats will host Wright State as part of the Blue Chip Showcase on April 28.
