The second half provided more of the same from the Bearcats as they created multiple scoring opportunities but the Jaguar defense held and the game ended in a scoreless tie.
Goalkeeper's Matt Williams (Portland, Maine/Cheverus) and Miguel Rosales (Aurora, Colo./Smoky Hill) each shared time in the shutout.
With the tie, UC moves to 1-1-3 in the spring, head coach Hylton Dayes on the match, "Even though the final result was a goalless draw, we were pleased with the number of quality chances we created. We now need to improve on our finishing."
