Strong Start Leads to Draw

Cochran, GA - The Knights were back on their home field on Saturday, August 31st as they hosted the Bears of Truett-McConnell University. The Knights were coming off of a tough loss and were looking to rebound with a win.

The Knights would start off strong as they would command the ball, taking possession and having a number of opportunities on offense. After a few shots, the Knights would get on the scoreboard in the 16th minute with a goal off the foot of Moos Zwerts, his second goal of the season, and the Knights would take a 1-0 lead. The Knights would continue to be aggressive as a foul in the penalty box that would draw a red card would put James Skelton on the spot and he would convert for his second goal of the season and the Knights would have a 2-0 lead with a man advantage. The rest of the first half would be filled with shots from both sides but the score would remain 2-0 going into the halftime break. The momentum for the Knights would shift in the second half as the Bears would be on the attack for most of the half. The Knights would give up goals in the 68th and 77th minutes as the match would be tied at 2-2. The Knights would have multiple shots in the remaining time but could not convert as the match would end in a 2-2 draw.

The Knights will have a few days to rest and prepare as they hit the road on Thursday, September 5th and take on the Hurricanes of Georgia Southwestern. Kickoff at scheduled for 7 PM EST.
