NC State and William & Mary have gone to OT in four of the last five meetings

September 10, 2019

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – Despite controlling the match and outshooting the hosts by a final count of 20-10, the NC State men's soccer team (2-1-1) was held to a 1-1 draw in double overtime at William & Mary (0-2-1) Tuesday evening inside Martin Family Stadium at Albert-Daly Field.

The Wolfpack generated two terrific chances to win the match during the overtime periods. Tyler Gabarra redirected a cross on target from very close range that was saved by William & Mary goalkeeper Kieran Baskett in the 98th minute and Gabriel Machado beat Baskett in the 109th minute, but his shot pinged squarely off the left post.
