(LOUISVILLE, Ken., Sep. 20) – The McKendree University men's soccer team finished in a 1-1 tie against the Knights of Bellarmine University Friday evening and now sits at 1-1-2 overall and 0-0-2 in Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) play.
 
After a scoreless first half, Bellarmine  found the back of the net in the 48^th minute and held the lead for almost the entirety of the second half, until Rulo Arteaga (Pachuca, Hidalgo, Mexico) netted a header in the 80^th minute courtesy of a Ryan Herling (Belleville, IL/Belleville West) cross. This sent the match into overtime, where Bellarmine had two scoring opportunities but were stifled by the McKendree defense. Bearcat goaltender Brett Niedzweicki made eight saves in the tying effort.
 
The men's soccer team will be back in action this Sunday, September 22 at 2:30 p.m. as they take on the Greyhounds of the University of Indianapolis back on their home turf of Leemon Field.
