Tigers, Bulldogs need double OT, settle for tie

Box Score

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (Oct. 2, 2010) – Ninety minutes was not enough for the Tigers and Bulldogs to determine a winner in Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference play on the Lower Soccer Field at Occidental College this afternoon. Instead, the teams battled through a pair of overtime periods and settled for a 1-1 tie.

Oxy got on the board first with a Ben Murray to Ben Grime pass and goal, respectively. The Tigers held onto that 1-0 lead into the break.

Redlands then  looked to Alex Laughton in the 60th minute, which tied the game.

One overtime led to the next and when all was said and done the Tigers had fired off nine shots, eight on goal, led by Grimes and Oliver Field who finished with two apiece.

The Bulldogs more than doubled the amount of attacking with 19 total shots, but only five were on goal for the Maroon and Gray. Midfielder Gabe Ramirez was responsible for three, with one at the cage, which accounted for one of the four saves that Oxy goalie Chris Liotta recorded on the afternoon.

Occidental now holds onto a 3-4-1 overall record and sit at 3-1-1 in SCIAC play. The Tigers hit the road on Wednesday, Oct. 6 when they travel to Thousand Oaks, Calif. to play the California Lutheran University Kingsmen at 4:00 p.m.
