BOCA RATON, Fla. - Newcomer Sydney Drinkwater recorded her sixth shutout of 2014 on Sunday as the Florida Atlantic University women's soccer team battled Conference USA rival FIU to a scoreless draw.
Drinkwater has now amassed an incredible 1,262 minutes in goal this season, putting her in the top ranks with the nation's leaders. The Owls (6-5-2, 1-1-1 C-USA) have played nearly 92 minutes of extra time over their seven overtime matches thus far.
The FAU defense was smothering in the first half, not allowing FIU to take a shot until early in the second frame.
A foul setup the Panthers for a penalty kick in the 48th minute, but Drinkwater made a fantastic diving save to keep the match scoreless. FIU would attempt another shot in the 59th minute, but was denied once more by Drinkwater's efforts.
FAU's Claire Emslie took one of her team-high three shots in the first overtime period, but the header was wide of the goal.
The ball was controlled by FIU for much of the second overtime period and the Panthers placed a shot on goal in the waning seconds of the game, but again Drinkwater made the save to give the Owls a point in the C-USA standings.
FAU goes on the road to take on Middle Tennessee State and UAB in C-USA matchups on Oct. 10 and 12, respectively. The Owls then return home to host North Texas on Oct. 17.
