The UNC Greensboro men's soccer squad entered the weekend ranked No. 21 in the nation, only to find themselves locked in a 1‑1 stalemate with the West Virginia Mountaineers.
Keaviano Francis, the team's leading scorer this season, struck twice, the second coming after Mason Dancy's assist in the 24th minute.
Goalkeeper Seth Wilson made two crucial saves in the second half, helping preserve the deadlock.
A draw that keeps the season alive
West Virginia forward Pablo Pozos inadvertently contributed to UNCG's goal after a corner kick, adding to the match's even tempo.
Defensively, the Spartans limited the Mountaineers to just four shots on target while generating 12 attempts of their own.
The team now turns its attention to a road test at Davidson on September 1, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. and a live stream on ESPN+.
