HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, VA - While the ODAC Tournament Quarterfinal contest between Hampden-Sydney and Washington & Lee will go down in the record books as a tie, the Generals advanced 5-4 in a shootout after 16 combined penalty kick attempts.

W&L's Miles Bent put W&L on top 1-0 less than five minutes in, but Robert Kerby (Hampton, VA / Kecoughtan) tied the game just 56 seconds before halftime. Kerby put the Tigers ahead 2-1 just 2:49 into the second half on his second goal of the day, but Sam Knapke knotted the game-tying goal in the 64th minute. Each team had a few near misses throughout the second half but neither could knock in the game-winner.

Each team had one dangerous opportunity in the first overtime. Liam Hogan (Haymarket, VA / Battlefield) has a shot saved at 93:51, and Zach Colby, W&L's leading scorer, managed to get free front and center of the goal insidde the box at 95:20 but sent his shot several feet over the crossbar. W&L managed two shots in the second overtime session, but Cameron McFarlane (Norwich, CT / South Kent) saved the only one on goal to send the game into a penalty kick shootout. With each team being tied after five PKs, each squad got one additional kick until a "winner" was determined. It ended up taking eight rounds when Bent made his attempt but the Tigers responded with a shot off the left post.

James Lawrence (Midlothian, VA / Midlothian) played admirably today having to play out of position due to injuries while Bryan Barahona (Guatemala City, Guatemala) stepped in due to injuries and was strong in the midfield when he came in for an injured Costin Gregory (Raleigh, NC / Sanderson). McFarlane finished with six saves, along with another two in the shootout while Civitarese made four saves with two more coming in the shootout. W&L outshot H-SC 17-12 but had only a 8-6 shot on goal advantage.
