Lightning Shots Too Much For Chaps Shots in 2-2 Draw

Battling a Four-Hour Game (Weather Delays Included), Game Halted In Double OT

GAME INFORMATION
Score: Eastern New Mexico 2, Lubbock Christian 2 2OT
Records: Lubbock Christian (3-1-1), Eastern New Mexico (3-0-2)
Location: John Walker Soccer Complex, in Lubbock, Texas
 
LCU HIGHLIGHTS
Tommy Fogarty-Cameron recorded a three-point game with an assist and the equalizer.
• Freshman Jacob Zapata opened the scoring for LCU with his first collegiate goal.
• The Chaps produced a season-high 35 shots on goal.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
• LCU, now 1-1-1 when the opposition scores first, gave up the opening goal with seven seconds left in the opening half as Ryan Sinclair's free kick skipped through the wickets of Chaps keeper Tristen Putnam.
• In the 53rd minute, Zapata played a shot off his heel, from a pass by Fogarty-Cameron, into the goal to tie the game at 1-1. It took only 3:58 for ENMU to respond, as Gino Battiato chipped a high arching shot from 40 yards out over the head of Putnam to regain the lead.  Fogarty-Cameron blasted a one-timer from Mitchell Hopkins for the equalizer in the 70th minute to tie the game 2-2.
• Lightning off a storm moving through in overtime led to officials calling the game in the 102nd minute (double overtime). Although the final 8:20 of the game was not played, the game is ruled as an official tie and all stats are counted/official.
 
GAME NOTES
• LCU's 35 shots was the most since firing 35 at McMurry on Oct. 26, 2013 and it matches as the third most in program history. LCU out-shot ENMU 35-14 overall and had a 13-5 edge on shots on goal. Zapata led LCU with six shots. Thirteen (13) different Chaps had a least one shot on goal.
• The tie placed LCU with an all-time overall record of 8-1-11 in games ending in overtime. It was the second draw under head coach Lee Williams and the first since Oct.2, 2014 at home ironically against ENMU.
• The game was played at John Walker Soccer Complex on the Texas Tech campus because of heavy morning rain. LCU is now 0-2-1 in home games not played at LCU Soccer Field. Wednesday's game was two hours and twenty minutes (2:20) but lasted four hours with all the delays, including an hour delay to start the game (lightning).
• With Fogarty-Cameron and Zapata each recording their first goal of the season, LCU has now received at least one goal from nine different players this season. They received goals from 12 different players last season.  
• LCU is 1-3-3 all-time against ENMU and ENMU has avoided a loss in six straight meetings.
• The Chaparrals are now 1-0-1 at home this season. They are 4-3-2 all-time at home under Williams and 25-11-6 all-time at home overall.
 
INSIDE THE NUMBERS

19-4 : LCU out-shot ENMU 19-4 in the second half and had a 26-6 advantage after halftime in shots.
11 : ENMU goalkeeper James Gutierrez made 11 saves, which is the most saves by a Chaps opposing goalkeeper since Tyler McIntosh of Mid-America Christian stopped 11 LCU shots on goal on Oct. 20, 2012.
