Late tally earns SHIP U. Men’s Soccer draw at Chestnut Hill, 1-1

The Shippensburg University men’s soccer team scored in the 73rd minute to earn a 1-1 draw against Chestnut Hill on Saturday at Victory Field.

Chestnut Hill’s Emmanuel Sampson opened the scoring in the 23rd minute. Shippensburg goalkeeper Ryan Krumenacker’s view was obstructed as Sampson placed a low shot on target.

Shippensburg created scoring opportunities around halftime. Chestnut Hill goalkeeper Max Bond stopped a free kick from Cam Henry before halftime and denied a close-range attempt from Braedon Johnson early in the second half.

The Raiders tied the match after Evan Brandt and Coy Rush combined to create an opening on the right side. Rush sent a low cross into the box, and Julius Dogan scored his second goal of the season.

Shippensburg held a 12-6 advantage in shots on goal and a 7-1 edge in corner kicks. Bond made 11 saves for Chestnut Hill, while Krumenacker recorded five saves for the Raiders.

Shippensburg moved to 0-0-2, while Chestnut Hill moved to 1-2-1.

The Raiders will host Bloomsburg in their Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Eastern Division opener at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
