MEN’S SOCCER

The Huntington men’s soccer team spoiled No. 10 Indiana Wesleyan’s Senior Night with a gritty 0-0 draw Saturday under the lights in Marion. The result marked just the second time this season the Wildcats have been held scoreless.

While IWU fired off 22 shots compared to HU’s seven, the contest told a much more even story statistically when it came to shots on goal, which slightly favored the hosts, 5-2. Keeper Jorge Gonzalez anchored a resilient Forester defense with five saves to record his fourth shutout of the season.

The stalemate continues Huntington’s strong recent trend against IWU, as the Wildcats haven’t topped the Foresters since 2015—a stretch now standing at seven HU wins and four ties over their last 11 meetings.

With the draw, Huntington moves to 2-6-4 overall and 0-3-1 in Crossroads League play, while Indiana Wesleyan sits at 7-2-3, 2-0-2 CL. The Foresters return to King Stadium on Saturday to host Saint Francis at 2:00 p.m.
