MADISON, N.J. – The Drew University men's soccer team played Moravian University to a scoreless draw in a Landmark Conference (LC) tilt Saturday afternoon at a sunny Ranger Stadium.
The Rangers (10-1-2, 0-1-2 LC) finished with a 12-9 advantage in shots while senior goalie
Calum Erlenborn made five saves to pick up his second-straight shutout and his fifth of the season.
Drew played a man down for the final eight minutes after receiving a red card.
Andrew Remias made a pair of saves to earn a shutout for Moravian (4-6-2, 2-0-1 LC).
In a defensively-controlled first half, each side managed just one shot on goal. The Rangers' top scoring opportunity came in the 42nd minute, when sophomore
Kevin Kiernan fired a shot from point-blank range that was saved by Remias. The ball was deflected to the left side, where freshman
Jonathan Gutierrez followed up with a rebound that sailed just left.
Overall, Drew outshot Moravian 5-2 in the opening period.
The Rangers continued knocking on the door early in the second half. Sophomore
Tino Puentes nearly snuck a header inside the far post in the 49th minute, and Kiernan just missed wide five minutes later.
Erlenborn came up with a big stop in the 70th minute, making a fingertip save to deflect away a dangerous shot. Four minutes later, Remias made a leaping grab on a rip from junior
Matthew Agudelo on the left wing.
Erlenborn made an additional impressive save in the 87th minute, dropping to the ground to knock away a shot at the right post in the 87th minute.
The Rangers wrap up their four-game homestand on Tuesday, when they host Western Connecticut University at 7 p.m. in Drew's final regular-season non-conference game.
